Everybody Loves To Cha Cha Cha

 C                                                G
Took my baby to the hop last night, What to my surprise,
C                     F                     Am     G          C
When we got there she hit me with the news right between the eyes

[Chorus]
    C                         F             C                       G
She said she couldn't do the cha, cha, cha My baby couldn't do the Cha Cha Cha
F#  F             Am   F         C                   F
She couldn't Cha Cha Cha  No  My baby couldn't do the Cha Cha Cha

[Verse]
   C                                                 G
I told her not to worry now, They'd play some other dance
  C                       F                     Am   G     C
But we sat there for an hour an a half And we never got a chance

[Chorus]
        C                             F
Cause every song they played Was the Cha, Cha, Cha.
 C                           G        F#  F              Am            F
They played nothin' but the Cha Cha Cha, all night long even in that midhight hour
C                      F
Every number was the Cha Cha Cha

[Verse]
C                                                G
I told her not to worry, There's still one thing we can do,
C                        F                      Am          G       C
Let me take you by your hand tonight, I want to teach this dance to you.

[Verse]

I taught my baby how.....  I taught my baby how to cha, cha, cha.
                         Am          F       C                     F
That time, Right there, right on the spot I taught my baby how to Cha, Cha, Cha

[Verse]
C                                                              G
We kept on dancing for an hour or two, What do you think I'd see?
 C                         F                           Am       G           C
We hadn't practiced for a time or two around, She was doing it better than me.

[Chorus]
C                               F         C   G  F# F       Am                F
You know my baby loves to Cha, Cha, Cha. Oh, Oh... There now,,, every night, every day. Ooooo!!
C                     F
Taught my baby how to Cha, Cha, Cha
C                   F              C                        G          F# F    Am    F
