C
Standing beside the ocean looking across the water

Everything is beautiful here but I still don't feel like I oughta
G7
Things we wanted  not so long ago
C
I got 'em all now but I ain't got you no more

      F
But I remember the way you held me
                         C
And all the sweet things you used to say
             G7                                 C
When we were two young lovers dancing the night away


Well I remember everything the way you wore your hair

Things everybody told me you seem to float right through the air
G7
I looked so funny dancing but you loved me anyhow
C
I wish I could find somebody would love me like that now

repeat #2


Standing beside of the ocean throwing rocks out in the bay

I should look for companionship but it just gets in my way
G7
Lights are flickering all along the shore
    C
Hey people dancing there but I just don't dance no more

repeat #2

               F                    Dm
Let me see you dance let me see you dance
   G7                  C
Oh baby let me see you dance
               F                    Dm
Let me see you dance let me see you dance
   G7                  C
Oh baby let me see you dance
