My heart skip, skip, skip, skip, skip, skips a beat.

So come on, (Bm)spin me a round.

Now I don’t (F#m)wan na go home ’cause when you (A)hold me like this you know my (E)heart skip, skips a beat.

I know I should, but I can’t (F#m)leave it a lone.

And when you (A)hold me like this, that’s when my (E)heart skip, skips a beat.

Oh, oh.

Oh, oh.

Oh, oh.

’Cause (CN.C.)all you ev er need to know is what you do to me.

And you hold me

So come on, (Bm)spin me a round.

Now I don’t (F#m)wan na go home ’cause when you (A)hold me like this you know my (E)heart skip, skips a beat.

Plus I got a lead from the back, I’m a skip her.

So come on, Oh, oh.

(E)Heart skip, skips a beat.
