D  Bm G Bm  G  D  A   

D                  G               
   This is not our favorite song   
Bm                        A   
   but the night's moving right along   
G        D         A           D         A     
   may I have your hand, may I have this dance   

D                        G   
   I sense that you are amused,   
Bm                           A                              
   but you just bought those brand new shoes   
G           D         A            D           A     
   It would be such a shame not to give us the chance   

    Bm    Em   A                       D      Bm        Em              A  G   
And oh my love   there is only so many dances    we can take across the night   
D                     G   
   So while it's just me and you   
Bm                   A   
   I thought I might say to you   
G      F#m     Em    A      D      
   You put the beautiful in life   

D  Bm G Bm  G  D  A   

D                           G   
   I know at times that you feel alone   
Bm                       A   
   when I'm here and I'm never home   
    G         D    A          D              A     
You said it before   it's the price that you pay   

D                G   
   On matters of clarity   
Bm                    A   
   it's no secret you carry me   
               G            D     A        D        A     
But should the sky start to fall,   I will keep you safe   

    Bm    Em   A                       D      Bm        Em              A  G   
And oh my love   there is only so many dances    we can take across the night   
D                     G   
   So while it's just me and you   
Bm                   A   
   I thought I might say to you   
G      F#m     Em    A      D      
   You put the beautiful in life   

    Bm  Em  A  D  Bm  Em  A  G   
And oooooooh  

D                   G   
    This is not our favorite song   
Bm                   A   
    but I wish it go on and on   
     G            D             A           D           A     
it's moments like these singers do all they can to stop time   

D                  G   
    So let me just say to you   
Bm                    C   
    before the DJ changes the tune   

G      F#m     Em    A      D     
   you put the beautiful in life   

G      F#m     Em    A      D   
   you put the beautiful in life
