We Danced Anyway
View chords used in this chart
Intro: D G Bm A
Play the intro chords through the verses.
The summer air was heavy and sweet
You and I on a crowded street
there was music everywhere
I can see us there
In a happy little foreign town,
With the stars hung upside down,
A half a world away
Far, Far away
G
I remember,
A
We were laughing
G
We were so in love, so in love
Bm G
And the Band played
D A
songs that we had never heard
Bm G
But we danced anyway
D A
We never understood the words
Bm G
We just sang Oh
D A G
A la la la la la la la la la
A
And we danced anyway
D G Bm A
They say ya can't go back
Well baby I don't believe that
Come along with me,
Come on and dance with me
Maybe if I hold you close,
Baby we could just let go
Of these that tie us down
Will come back again
I remember
You were laughing
We were so in love, we were so in love
<Chorus, same way>
I haven't exactly picked out the cool guitar solo, but just play the intro chords, good enough.
