Capo 5
Intro: Fsus2
Fsus2C/EGsus4/DC/E
Do you still keep paper flowers in the bottom-drawer with your belgian lace
Fsus2C/EAsus4Am
Taking them out every year to watch the colours fade away
Fsus2C/EA#/DA#
Do you still believe in fairy tales in battlements of shining castles
AmG/AAm
Safe from the dragons that lie beneath the hill
Fsus2C/EGsus4/DC/E
Are you still a Russian princes rescued by a gipsy-dancer
Fsus2C/EAsus4Am
To anyone who'll listen, is that a story you still tell
Fsus2C/EA#/DA#
You live a life of fantasy, your diary romantic fiction
FG/FFGG7
Can't you see it's hard for me, can you see what I'm trying to say
CEm
It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll do one step to the side
FC
Can you get it inside your head, I'm tired of dancing
CG/BAmAm/GF
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back
FC/EGsus4/DGAsus4
Can you get it inside your head, I'm tired of dancing
| |Am |Asus4 |Am |
|F |C |A#/D |A# |
|Asus4 |Am |Asus4 |Am |
C/G
I know you still like Old-fashioned waltzes
GC/GG
Your reflection in the mirror that you flirt with as you glide across the floor
AmG
But if I told you the music's over, would you want to hear
AmGG7
That your dance card is empty, that there's no-one really there
Fsus2C/EGsus4/DC/EFsus2
Do you still believe in Santa Claus, there's a millionaire looking for your front door
C/EAsus4Am
With the key to a life that you'd never understand
Fsus2C/EA#/DA#
And all I have to offer is the love I have, it's freely given
FG/FFGG7
You'll see it's value when you see what I'm trying to say
CEm
It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll do one step to the side
FC
Can you get it inside your head, I'm tired of dancing
CG/BAmAm/GF
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back
FC/EGsus4/D
Can you get it inside your head
GAmF
That from this one step forward there's no turning back
FC/EGsus4/DGAsus4Amus4
Can you get it inside your head, I'm tired of dancing
Asus4Amus4
We're finished dancing
