verse 1 
     D 
You can dance ev'ry dance with the guy 

                           A7 
Who gives you the eye; let him hold you tight. 


You can smile ev'ry smile for the man 

                            D 
Who held your hand beneath the pale moonlight. 


          G 
But don't for-get who's taking you home 

             D 
And in whose arms you're going to be. 

  A7                   D 
So darlin', save the last dance for me..Ooh. 

verse 2 
   D 
Oh, I know  that the music's fine 

                        A7 
Like sparklin' wine; go and have your fun. 


Laugh and sing, but while we're apart 

                     D 
Don't give your heart to anyone. 


          G 
But don't for-get who's taking you home 

              D 
And in whose arms you're going to be. 

       A7                           D 
So darlin', save the last dance for me..Ooh. 


BRIDGE 

                  A7 
Baby, don't you know I love you so? 

                        D 
Can't you feel it when we touch? 

                    A7 
I will never, never let you go. 

                 D 
I love you, oh, so much. 

verse 3 

      D 
You can dance, go carry on 

                            A7 
Till the night is gone and it's time to go. 


If he asks if your alone, 

                       D 
Can he walk you home, you must tell him no. 




          G 
But don't for-get who's taking you home 

             D 
And in whose arms you're going to be. 

     A7                D 
So darlin', save the last dance for me..Ooh.
