Dm DmGm GmBb BbA7 A7
Verse 1:
Dm DmGm Gm
I feel so unsu re
Bb BbA7 A7
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
Dm DmGm Gm
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Bb BbA7 A7
Calls to mind a silver screen, and all its sad good-byes

Chorus:
Dm DmGm Gm
I'm never gonna dance again, guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb BbA7 A7
Though it's easy to pretend, I know you're not a fool
Dm Dm
I should've known better than to cheat a friend,
Gm Gm
And waste the chance that I'd been given
Bb BbA7 A7
So I'm never gonna dance again, the way I danced with you

Interlude:
Dm DmGm GmBb BbA7 A7

Verse 2:
Dm DmGm GmBb BbA7 A7
Time can never mend, the careless whispers of a good friend
Dm DmGm Gm
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
Bb BbA7 A7
There's no comfort in the truth, pain is all you'll find

Chorus

Instrumental Break:

Dm DmGm GmBb BbA7 A7

Verse 3:
Dm Dm
Tonight the music seems so loud,
Gm Gm
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Bb Bb
Maybe it's better this way,
A7 A7
we'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
Dm Dm
We could have been so good together,
Gm Gm
we could have lived this dance forever
Bb BbA7 A7
But now who's gonna dance with me? Please stay

Bridge:
Dm DmGm Gm
(Now that you're gone)
Bb BbA7 A7
Now that you're gone, do you have to leave me alone?
Dm DmGm Gm
(Now that you're gone)
Bb BbA7 A7
So wrong, so wrong, did you have to leave me alone?
(or repeat previous line)

Chorus

Outro:
Dm DmGm Gm
Woa-oah.
Bb BbA7Dm Dm
No, I'm never gonna dance again, the way I danced with you
