D
Pop music 101
Some simple instructions
G
For a good first impression
Now let’s start with verse one:
Bm
A minor chord, tensions grow;
Fade in the bass like so;
G
Now with momentum go “stop”
And bring the beat back
D
It’s called Four-on-the-floor
A beat you can’t ignore
G
I’ll bring sexy back once more [“yeah!”]
They’ll love that [“yeah!”] fo’ sho’!
Bm
The chords are 1-4-6-4
Now I’m talkin familiar
G
Harmony in thirds, not fourths
We'll take you into the pre-chorus
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
Real quick now, don’t you bore us
A
Hurry up and get to the chorus!
G
Dumbed down, they won’t ignore us
[Chorus]
G
Get to the floor!
Bm A G
And here’s some words you should know:
D A G
Like “DJ never let me go”
Bm A G
Or "shots and then I’ll "lose control"!
D A
Or “baby baby baby baby baby”
G A
How about one more last word like
G Bm A
"Hey girl, we’ve only got tonight"?
G A
Some things just go together like:
G Bm A
"higher", "desire" and "fire;" "higher", "desire" and "fire"
[Verse 2]
D
Guitar and strings like these
To sound like Black Eyed Peas
G
This one’s a filtered swing
This one’s a matching key
Bm
Hipster music on cassette
But you probably don’t know that yet
G
808’s-… [“hey! ho!”] Hell yeah!
D
Heartfelt pop anthems
From Mumford and his Sons
G
Gang vocals here we come
Thinkin'
Bm
“I…
Will…
A
Always wait”
[wobble bass]
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
Real quick now, don’t you bore us
A
Hurry up and get to the chorus!
G
Dumbed down, they won’t ignore us
[Chorus]
G
Get to the floor!
Bm A G
And here’s some words you should know:
D A G

[Bridge]
D
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
G
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
Bm
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
A
I can make my voice low
D
The bridge is
The part when
You bring in
A rapper friend. [“Sup?”]
G
You simplify, you slow the beat
Abbreviate, feature to feat
Bm
Quick now, fill in the gaps. [“Okay!!”]
Right up and down, eliminate that which you
A
Really would rap an’
Give them a classic like “Get-get-get-get…”
[Chorus]
G
Get to the floor! [CASH MONEY]
Bm A G
