Intro

| [G] | [G] | [G] | [G] |

Verse 1

[G] [D] [G]

I thought I could hear the curious tone, of the cornet, clarinet and big trombone

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Fiddle, 'cello, big bass drum, bassoon, the flute and euphonium

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Far away, as in a trance, I heard the sound of the Floral Dance

Break

| [G] | [G] | [G] | [G] |

Verse 2

[G] [A]

As I walked home on a Summer night, when stars in heaven were shining bright

[B] [E] [D] [G]

Far away from the footlight's glare, into the sweet and scented air

[A] [D]

Of a quaint old Cornish town

Break

| [D] | [D] | [D] | [D] |

Verse 3

[F#] [F] [E] [Eb] [D]

Borne from afar on the gentle breeze, joining the murmur of summer seas

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Distant tones of an old world dance, played by the village band pеrchance

[Em] [A] [D] [G]

On the calm air came floating down

Break

| [G] | [C] [G] | [D] | [D] |

Verse 4

[G] [D] [G]

I thought I could hеar the curious tone, of the cornet, clarinet and big trombone

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Fiddle, 'cello, big bass drum, bassoon, the flute and euphonium

[C] [G] [D] [G] [G] [G]

Far away, as in a trance, I heard the sound of the Floral Dance

[D] [G]

I heard the sound of the Floral Dance

Break

| [G] | [G] | [G] | [G] |

Verse 5

[G] [A]

And soon I heard such a bustling and prancing, then I saw the whole village was dancing

[B] [E] [D] [G]

In and out of the houses they came, old folk, young folk, all the same

[E] [A] [D]

In that quaint old Cornish town

Break

| [D] | [D] | [D] | [D] |

Verse 6

[F#] [F] [E] [Eb] [D]

Every boy took a girl 'round the waist and hurried her off in tremendous haste

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Whether they knew one another I care not, whether they cared at all, I know not

[Em] [A] [D] [G]

But they kissed as they danced along

Break

| [G] | [C] [G] | [D] | [D] |

Verse 7

[G] [D] [G]

And there was the band with that curious tone, of the cornet, clarinet and big trombone

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Fiddle, 'cello, big bass drum, bassoon, a flute and euphonium

[C] [G] [D] [G] [G] [G]

Each one making the most of his chance, all together in the Floral Dance

[D] [G]

All together in the Floral Dance

[Final]

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Dancing here, prancing there, jigging, jogging everywhere

[C] [G] [D] [G]

Up and down, and around the town. Hurrah! For the Cornish Floral Dance
