A5
Late night call
D5
And she's at your door
A5
Teenage tears
D5
On the kitchen floor
E5 F#5
I pull you close and hold my breath
D5
Feel your heart beat through your summer dress
E5 F#5 D5
Shuffle our feet slowly to the stereo
E5 F#5
And if your boyfriend suddenly appears
D5
If your father comes home and finds us here
E5 F#5 D5
You and I, we won't need an alibi
A E D root notes only
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
Mirror ball
and a cover band
Just for kicks
Won't you take my hand?
It's something that all good friends do
It's not like I'm in love with you
What a crazy idea, where did you get that?
Let's tangle up our finger tips
I'll a rest a hand upon your hips
There's nothing to see it's all so innocent
A5 E5 D5
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
Interlude:
A Asus2 A Asus4 A
D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D (4x)
Clip-on tie
And a sweater vest
You wear a veil
And a wedding dress
I watch you part a crowded room
The perfect bride and the perfect groom
As you float across the ballroom in his arms
And I want to scream, I want to burst
I want to blame the whole damn universe
But the same three words I whisper to myself
A E D open position
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
It's only dancing
A E D
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-OOO-ooo-ooo
