Intro Verse:
D7GD7GD7
Those who dance and romance while they dance --
GEdimAm7
They seem so happy and gay;
AmAm+7 Am7Am6
Though they sing while they swing and they sway,
AGdimCdimDD7
Somehow I can't feel that way.
GCdimAm7GG6
I've been dancing with tears in my eyes,
D7GEdimAm7D9
'Cause the boy in my arms wasn't you;
AmAm+7 Am7Am6
Dancing with somebody new,
D9D7EdimG
When it's you that my hearts calling to.
AmDmAmE7
Trying to smile, once in a while,
AmAm+7 DD7
But I find that so hard to do.
Am7DGCdimAm7GE7F#
I've been dancing with tears in my eyes,
CCdimAm7D7G
'Cause the boy in my arms was - n't you.
