Tono:
G They put a parking lot on a piece of land
D G Where the supermarket used to stand.
G Before that they put up a bowling alley
D On the site that used to be the
G local Palais.
C G That's where the big bands used to come and play.
D G My sister went there on a Saturday. [Chorus]
C Come dancing,
G All her boyfriends used to come and call.
D C Why not come dancing? it's only
G natural [Riff] [Verse]
G Another Saturday, another date.
D She would be ready but she's
G always make them wait.
G In the hallway, in anticipation,
D He didn't know the night would end
G up in frustration.
C He'd end up blowing all his wages
G for the week
D All for a cuddle and a peck on the
G cheek.

[Chorus]
C Come dancing,
G That's how they did it when I was just a kid,
D And when they said come dancing, my
C G sister always did. [Riff]
Em D My sister should have come in at
C midnight,
Em D And my mom would always sit up and
C wait.
Em D C It always ended up in a big row
Em D When my sister used to get home
C late. (This part is like the intro)
G D (spoken) Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight,
D Two silhouettes saying goodnight
G by the garden gate. (Mom yells at them...)
Em D C The day they knocked down the pally
Em D C My sister stood and cried.
Em D C The day they knocked down the pally
Em D C Part of my childhood died, just died. (loud) Em D C D Em D C D Em D C D Em D C D (Repeat intro)
G D D G [Verse]
G Now I'm grown up and playing in a band,
D And there's a car park where the
G pally used to stand.
G My sister's married and she lives on an estate.
D Her daughters go out, now it's her
G turn to wait.
C G She knows they get away with things she never could,
D But if I asked her I wonder if she
G would, [Chorus]
C Come dancing,
G Come on sister, have yourself a ball.
D Don't be afraid to come dancing,
C G it's only natural. (The last chorus leads to a key change....)
C Come dancing,
C G Just like the pally on a Saturday. And all her friends will come
D dancing
C Em Where the big bands used to play.
