[Verse]
  C             Am               Em          Am
I danced in the morning when the world had begun
      Dm                                       G
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
  C              Am           Em            Am
I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth
   Dm    G     C
At Bethlehem I had my birth

[Chorus]
                 Em           Am
Dance, then, wherever you may be

"I am the lord of the dance", said he

And I lead you all in the dance", said he

[Verse]
         C          Am               Em         Am
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
         Dm                                  G
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be
    C               Am            Em         Am
And when we find ourselves in the place just right
       Dm        G         C
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight

[Chorus]
                 Em           Am
Dance, then, wherever you may be
 C        F           Dm           G
"I am the lord of the dance", said he

"And I lead you all, wherever you may be
      Dm       G          C       F    C
And I lead you all in the dance", said he

[Verse]
     C       Am   Em    Am
When true simplicity is gained
   Dm                             G
To bow and to bend, we shan't be ashamed
   C        Am        Em       Am
To turn, to turn will be our delight
 Dm      G          C
'Till by turning we come 'round right

[Chorus]
                 Em           Am
