verse 1 
    D       G        D         A 
All eyes on her from dawn till dusk, 
D          G        A 
Hanging on her every word, 
D         G            D          A 
Kings and Queens never saw such a fuss, 
    G            D          A 
Her servants are waiting to serve. 


      G          D 
Sally Ann, Sally Ann, 
 A           D 
Oh when you dance, 
      G             A         D 
Every move that you make is amazing. 
        G              D 
Take my heart, take my hand, 
  A       D     
Hey Sally Ann, 
G            A            D 
Life will be all that you make it.

Bridge 
Em            A                G 
 It breaks my heart to see her cry, 
Em              A               G 
 I'm a fool for her, that's for sure, 
Em            A           G 
 You see me swallowing my pride, 
Em           G               A 
 She's got me crawling on the floor. 

Chorus 
Sally Ann, Sally Ann, 
Oh when you dance, 
Every move that you make is amazing. 
Take my heart, take my hand,    
Hey Sally Ann, 
G            A             
Life will be all, 
Em           D               
Life will be all, 
G            A            D 
Life will be all that you make it.
