Capo fret 3
CYesterday well it Amseemed so cool
Loneliness is a crowded room
Now I know I must walk the line
FWhen I walked you homeG, kissed goodnight
full of open hearts turned to stone
 until  I  find  an  o - pen door
I Fsaid it's love Gyou said all right
all together all alone
off the street onto the floor
iCt's funny how I could Amnever cry
all at once my whole world had changed
there was I many times a fool
until tFonight and you Gpassed by
now I'm in the dark off the wall
I hope and pray but not too much
hFand in hand with Ganother guy
let the strobe light up them all
outof reach is out of touch
YouF're dressed to kill and Gguess who's 
I close my eyes and dance till dawn
All the way is  far      enough
Crying.
DDance away the heartaBmche daGnce away the 
tAears dDance away the heaBmrtache dGance away
the tears dAance aGway.
