dark disco floor[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nI danced up a storm like I’d never before[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]\t\t\t[ch]D[/ch]\t   [ch]G[/ch]\r\nEvery step in the book and then some that weren’t listed[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]\t\t\t\t\t [ch]Em[/ch] \t\t[ch]D[/ch]\r\nFor a song or two I felt nothing else existed[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\t\t\t\t\t[ch]C[/ch]

     [ch]D[/ch]\t\t  [ch]G[/ch]\r\nStrobing effects or perhaps it was that dress[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]\t\t\t\t\t[ch]Em[/ch]\t\t[ch]D[/ch]\r\nBut my eye was captured by a beautiful actress[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]\t\t[ch]G[/ch]\t\t[ch]C[/ch]\t\t[ch]G[/ch]\r\nNow the minutiae’s still my memory writ large[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch] \r\nAs she danced nearer me with her coy entourage[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\t\t\t[ch]D[/ch]\t\t\t[ch]G[/ch]\r\nShe tugged at the scarf round her neck it came loose[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]\t\t\t\t   [ch]C[/ch]   \t\t[ch]G[/ch]\t\t[ch]G[/ch]\r\nShe flung it and hung it from the disc jockey’s booth[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]      [ch]C[/ch]\t\t[ch]D[/ch]\t  [ch]Em[/ch]\t    [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut before I continue one moments reprieve[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\t\t\t\t\t[ch]G[/ch] \r\nI grant you dear audience a chance to leave[/tab]\r\n[tab]\t[ch]C[/ch]\t   [ch]D[/ch]           [ch]Em[/ch]\t  [ch]C[/ch]\r\nFor my

changed[/tab]\r\n[tab]\t[ch]C[/ch]\t\t[ch]D[/ch]\t    [ch]G[/ch] \r\nSee we only touched elbows is the plain naked truth[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]\t\t\t      [ch]C[/ch]\t         [ch]G[/ch]

together[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nThen the moment was over in a falling feather[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\t      [ch]D[/ch]\t\t[ch]G[/ch]\r\nAn accident sure but it happened I’ll
