The Dancing Floor

INTRO: C    F  C  G  C  F  C   

 F  C  G  C  F  C  G    C

           F        C        G   
Beside the braes of dawn one 
      C        F
clear new morning
                      C
Down where the lilies stood in bloom
            F            C        
I knew that I was just a stranger 
G       C      F
in this world
            G      C
A wind just passing through


      F        C              G  
So we dared to stray in these 
    C      F
golden ways
                             C
We never, never knew what to do
        F                  C      
And the world kept coming, 
            G       C    F
screaming all it's news at me
          G             C
Well, now I've got news for you


CHORUS 1:
So, let me take you down to the 
G       C      F
dancing floor
                       C
You can walk out on the crowd
       F                           
Let us waltz away what's left of 
  G            C  F
the living years
       G              C
In celebration of the loved


CHORUS 2:
It's all glitz and sparkle down on 
    G       C      F
the dancing floor
                      C
We can turn our lives around
     F                             
Just leave behind that wretch that 
G             C  F
you have been
          G               C
With that fool that I'd become

              F           C       
No, nothing's all that it seems in
     G               C       F
 the strands and the weaves
                            C
Our steps renewed, our lips confess
        F               C      
We were stranded at the alter of 
    G       C       F
unknown delights
            G            C
Down on the road to happiness


           F        C       
And as the sunlight fills the 
  G        C      F
highland hills
                         C
It's all become so clear somehow
         F       C             G 
That the days we spend are not 
      C    F
made to end
         G               C
We stand forever in their glow


CHORUS 1:
So, let me take you down to the 
G       C      F
dancing floor
                       C
You can walk out on the crowd
       F                           
Let us waltz away what's left of 
  G            C   F
the living years
       G              C
In celebration of the loved


CHORUS 2:
It's all glitz and sparkle down on 
    G       C      F
the dancing floor
                      C
We can turn our lives around
     F                             
Just leave behind that wretch that 
G             C  F
you have been
          G               C
With that fool that I'd become

              F  C  G      C


        F         C           G  
Now the hours are few and the 
            C         F
days can be so cruel (so cruel)
                           C
Yes, the night are getting long
         F        C         G     
And that joy that you would always
 C      F
 bring
      G             C
It'll always keep me strong


CHORUS 1:
So, let me take you down to the 
G       C      F
dancing floor
                       C

  G            C  F
the living years
       G              C
In celebration of the loved


CHORUS 2:
It's all glitz and sparkle tonight 
       G       C      F
on the dancing floor
                      C
We can turn our lives around
     F                             
Just leave behind that wretch that 
G             C  F
you have been
          G               C
With that fool that I'd become
