"We Danced"
Capo on second fret
G C
The bar was empty, I was sweepin' up the floor
D C G
That's when she walked in, I said "I'm sorry but we're closed"
C
And she said "I know, but I'm afraid I left my purse"
D C G
I said "I put one back behind the bar, I bet it's probably yours"
Am C D G
And the next thing that I knew there we were, lost in conversation
Am C Am
And before I handed her her purse I said, "you'll only get this back
D
On one condition"?
(Chorus)
G C D
And we danced, out there on that empty hardwood floor
C
The chairs up and the lights turned way down low
D
The music played we held each other close
G
And we danced.
G C
And from that moment, there was never any doubt
D C G
I had found the one that I had always dreamed about
G C
And then one evening, when she stopped by after work
D C G
I pulled a diamond ring out of the pocket of my shirt
Am C
And as her eyes filled up with tears, she said
D G
"This is the last thing I expected"
Am C
And then she took me by the hand and said
Am C D
"I'll only marry you on one condition"
(Chorus)
C D
Like no one else had ever danced before
C
I can't explain what happened on that floor
D
But the music played we held each other close
G C G
And we danced, yeah we danced.
