An oth er (Csus)cold night, an oth er late flight.

It’s al most (F)show time and (G)Di verse Cit y’s wait ing (Gsus)on me.

We got a (Csus)packed house; the crowd is call ing out.

They want the (F)beat to drop, but (G)what we real ly need is You.

(C)If You wan na steal my show, I’ll sit back and watch You go.

If You got some thing to say, go on and take it a way.

Need You to steal my show, can’t wait to watch You (Am)go, oh, oh, (F)oh, so take it a way.

So now the (Csus)crowd is hyped that You showed up to night, an tic i (F)pat ing, crav ing (G)some thing more than smoke and (Gsus)lights.

So I’ll step (Csus)out the way, I’ll give you cen ter stage.

Our hearts col lide; they’re (C)beat ing in the same time.

If You got some thing to say, go on and take it a way.

Need You to steal my show, can’t wait to watch You (Am)go, oh, oh, (F)oh, so take it a way.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with energetic, driving rhythms in the key of C.

Your left hand will lock into an octave bass pattern that gives the song its forward momentum — keep those octaves steady and even, almost like a heartbeat, and you'll anchor everything else.

Your right hand cycles through familiar chords like C, F, G, and Am, but watch out for the sus4 shapes: Csus4 and Gsus4 ask you to swap your third for a fourth quickly and then resolve back, so isolate those transitions slowly until the finger swap feels automatic.

The Bb chord is your one outsider — it's borrowed from C minor and will feel unexpected under your fingers, so drill any passage where it appears until the reach is comfortable.

Start hands-separate at around 80 BPM, then bring them together before pushing toward the full 106.

Once it clicks, this song will seriously strengthen your ability to keep a steady pop groove while managing quick chord changes on the fly.
