    E                                  B 
A voice like honey, no one else could fill his shoes 
     E                                            B 
The time and the weather, the headlines and the local news 
            C#m                      B 
He lays it down with perfection and grace 
         E                          A 
Done by noon, he goes home to his place 
           E             B            C#m     E 
Where he sleeps and he waits for the night 

  E                                           B 
Just before midnight he gets up, gets out of bed 
   E                                        B 
A can of Red Bull, a tab of X to clear his head 
               C#m                        B 
He shoots his cuffs, now he’s headed downtown 
              E                       A 
Picks up one life, puts another one down 
         E                  C 
And his body hums and the music’s playing 


  G              C  G      D  
Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance 
        Bm                 C     D 
It’s a cold world, nobody understands 
       Em        Am          D 
The feeling you can’t keep inside 
 G            C   G    D 
Go, Soterios Johnson, go 
              Bm                      C        D 
All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow 
          Em          Am             D 
With the light of a truth you can’t hide 
          C           G              D             E 
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever 


 E                                         B 
He shimmies his shoulders, undulates his slender hips 
  E                            B 
Arms akimbo, Jaggeresque, he pouts his lips 
          C#m                      B 
A circle forms, everybody comes 'round 
         E                    A 
Just to hear the incredible sound 
        E                  D 
Of a genius smashing expectations 

(Refrão) 

Ponte: 
  E     B              G 
He’s dancing, he’s a machine 
     D                         Bb 
Like no one, that they’ve ever seen 
        F                    D       E 
He’s flying, he’s living a dream_______ 

      E                                    B 
The magic fades as the sun comes up, it’s time he goes 
   E                                                 B 
A hand on his shoulder, he turns around: it’s Teri Gross 
              C#m                      B 
He takes her hand, spins her body just so 
              E                       A 
He holds her close, he will never let go 
               E             D 
As the room explodes, they dance like angels 


 G               C   G     D 
Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance 
             Bm            C      D 
It’s a cold world, nobody understands 
       Em         Am         D 
The feeling you can’t keep inside 
 G             C  G    D  
Go, Soterios Johnson, go 
              Bm                     C         D 
All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow 
          Em         Am              D 
With the light of a truth you can’t hide 
          C           G             D 
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on 
          C           G             D 
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on 

          C           G             D               E 
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever
