G      G6    G7 G6    G G7 G6 G G7 G6  G 
Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm 
        G6     G7   G6          G 
That pitter pats in my brain  
G   G6       G7 G6  G  G7 G6 G G7 G6 
So darn persistent, the day isn't distant 
          G   Am7 Dm7 Am7 G 
When it'll drive me insane 
  C      Am    C7    Am  C     C7  Am  C      C7 
Comes in the morning, without any warning 
        C          Am        C7 Am C7/9 
And hangs around me all day 
     C           Am        C7 Am        D9           Am7       D7 
I'll have to sneak up to it, someday and speak up to it 
     C         Am      C7         D7 
I hope it listens when I say  
Am7   C       D7                 Am7      C        D7 
Fascinatin' rhythm, you've got me on the go  
Am7 C         D7                Am7 D7 
Fascinatin' rhythm, I'm all aquiver  
Dm7     F                   G7                 Dm7          F          G7 
What a mess you're making, the neighbors want to know  
Dm7          F         G7                 Dm7   G7 
Why I'm always shaking, just like a flivver  
C       C/B       Am7     Cdim             G   G/F# 
Each morning   I    get   up with the sun 
 G/B      Am7        D9       Am7 
Start a hopping, never stopping  
A    Em7         A7             G/B         A7    D7 
To find, that night, no work has been done 
    C       C/B    Am7     C        D7 
I know that once it didn't matter 
        Am7                        D7 
But now you're doing wrong  
Am7          C           D7               C        D7 
When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy  
Dm7         F          G7           Dm7      F       G7 
Won't you take a day off, decide to run along 
Dm7            F        G7                   Dm7     G7 
Somewhere far away off, and make it snappy 
C    C/B    Am7     D7 Am7 D7  B7             E7  
Oh, how I long to be  the  girl I    used to be 
Am    C        D7 
Fascinatin' rhythm 
      Am           C      D7   Am7 G  
Oh, won't you stop picking on me
