G D A D
In the morning when from slumber you awake
G D F#m A
Find me sleeping like a baby by your side
G D
Get up, get off to work
A D
'Cause there are cakes that must be baked
G D
But if there's things that I must do
A
I'd sooner let them slide
[Refrão] Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in
G D
It is a dance that is bizarre
A D
It is a dance that's wearing thin
Bm A Bm A
And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
A G D/F# A
Seems we find the time to shout
G D A D
And late at night when I come fumbling for my keys
G D F#m A
The house is dark and all is quiet
G D A D
Get into bed it is so hard for me to please
G D
You're barely hours away from work
A
And you're so tired
Chorus:
Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in

It is a dance that is bizarre

And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
A G D/F# A
Seems we find the time to shout
G D
Some people pray for rain
A D
Some people pray for holidays
G D F#m A
Some people pray for money without swelter
G D
But we just pray for two shifts
A D
At the same end of the day
G D A
And a life that is not quite so helter skelter
Chorus:
Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in
G D
It is a dance that is bizarre
A D
It is a dance that's wearing thin
Bm A Bm A
And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
