Intro
[Dm] [Gm7] [Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7] [Dm] [Gm7] [Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
Oh..oh..oh
Verse 1
[Dm7] [Gm7]
I feel so unsure,
[Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Am7]
As the music dies, something in your eyes,
[Bbmaj7]
Calls to mind a silver screen,
[Am7]
And all its sad goodbyes.
Chorus
[Dm]
I'm never gonna dance again,
[Gm7] [Am7]
Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
[Bbmaj7]
Though it's easy to pretend,
[Am7]
I know you're not a fool.
[Dm7]
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
[Gm7] [Am7]
And waste the chance that I've been given.
[Bbmaj7]
So I'm never gonna dance again,
[Am7] [Dm7]
The way I danced with you whoo hoo - oh yeah
Verse 2
[Dm7] [Gm7]
Time can never mend,
[Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
The careless whispers of a good friend.
[Dm7]
To the heart and mind,
[Gm7] [Am7]
Ignorance is kind
[Bbmaj7]
There's no comfort in the truth,
[Am7]
Pain is all you'll find.
Chorus
[Dm]
I'm never gonna dance again,
[Gm7] [Am7]
Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
[Bbmaj7]
Though it's easy to pretend,
[Am7]
I know you're not a fool.
[Dm7]
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
[Gm7] [Am7]
And waste the chance that I've been given.
[Bbmaj7]
So I'm never gonna dance again,
[Am7] [Dm7]
The way I danced with you whoo hoo - oh yeah
What am I without your love?
Verse 3
[Dm7]
Tonight the music seems so loud,
[Gm7]
I wish that we could lose the crowd.
[Am7]
Maybe it's better this way,
[Bbmaj7]
We hurt each other with the things we want to say.
[Dm7]
We could have been so good together,
[Gm7]
We could have made this dance forever...
[Am7]
But now, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay.
Chorus
[Dm]
I'm never gonna dance again,
[Gm7] [Am7]
Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
[Bbmaj7]
Though it's easy to pretend,
[Am7]
I know you're not a fool.
[Dm7]
I should have known better than to cheat a friend,
[Gm7] [Am7]
And waste the chance that I've been given.
[Bbmaj7]
So I'm never gonna dance again,
[Am7] [Dm7]
The way I danced with you whoo hoo - oh yeah
Background Chorus:
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Am7] [Bbmaj7]
(Now that you're gone... Now that you're gone...)
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Am7] [Bbmaj7]
(Now that you're gone...) Was what I did so wrong?
[Am7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7] [Bbmaj7]
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?
