[C]I’m spinning a[D]round, move out of my [C]way,
I know you’re feeling me, ’cause you [D]like it like [C]this.
I’m breaking it [D]down, I’m not the [C]same,
I know you’re [D]feeling me ’cause you like it like [C]this.


[C]Traded in my sorrows for some [D]joy that I borrowed
[C]from back in the [D]day.
[C]Threw away my old clothes, [D]got myself a better wardrobe,
[C]I got something to [D]say.


I’m [C]through with the past, ain’t no point in looking [D]back,
[C]the future will [D]be.
And did [C]I forget to mention that I [D]found a new direction,
[C]and it leads back to [D]me ?


[C]I’m spinning a[D]round, move out of my [C]way,
I know you’re feeling me, ’cause you [D]like it like [C]this.
I’m breaking it [D]down, I’m not the [C]same,
I know you’re [D]feeling me ’cause you like it like [C]this.


The mi[C]stakes I’ve made, have [D]given me the strength
[C]to really [D]believe
[C]that no matter how I take it, there’s no way I’m gonna fake it[D],
[C]’cause it’s gotta be real. [D]


[C]I’ve got nothing left to hide, [D]no reason left to fight,
[C]’cause the truth’s given [D]me
[C]a new freedom inside, getting [D]rid of my desire.
[C]Do you like what you [D]see ?


[C]I’m spinning a[D]round, move out of my [C]way,
I know you’re feeling me, ’cause you [D]like it like [C]this.
I’m breaking it [D]down, I’m not the [C]same,
I know you’re [D]feeling me ’cause you like it like [C]this.


[C]Baby, baby, [D]baby!
[A]You know you [C]like it like [D]this, oh, [Em]baby, baby, baby!
[A]You know you [C]like it like [D]this, oh, [Em]baby, baby, baby!


[C]I’m spinning a[D]round, move out of my [C]way,
I know you’re feeling me, ’cause you [D]like it like [C]this.
I’m breaking it [D]down, I’m not the [C]same,
I know you’re [D]feeling me ’cause you like it like [C]this.
