The evening has hardly begun
  D
Thanks for the dance

Try to look inspired

One two three, one two three one

There's a rose in your hair
        D
Your shoulders are bare

You've been wearing this costume forever

It was almost a daughter or a son
[Pre-Chorus]
               A
And there's nothing to do
         D
But to wonder if you
          Bm       A
Are as hopeless as me
         G     Gm
And as decent
[Chorus]
        D
We're joined in the spirit
  G
Joined at the hip
  E7
Joined in the panic
  Gm
Wondering if
       A6           G6
We've come to some sort
      D        A
Of agreement
[Interlude]
 D                A  A7  D
Dum Dum Dah-Dum

It was fine, it was fast
          D
We were first, we were last
    Bm           A          G      Gm
In line at the Temple of Pleasure
          D
But the green was so green

And the blue was so blue
[Pre-Chorus]

I was so I

And you were so you

As a feather
[Chorus]

Thanks for the dance

It was fun

One two three, one two three one
