I'm not really here I - 
                        C#m 
I'm just looking through 
              E 
I am watching your life 
                     B 
You're watching mine too 


B 
Can I join you for a - 
                C#m 
Circle on the ride 
                 E 
They say you die of shame 
                 B 
Not cold in the wild 

 

B                 E 
Is it true? Is it done? 
B                 E 
Is it over? 
B                 E

F#           E                B 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing it at all? 
F#           E                B 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing it at all? 



Move away from memory 
Move to the core 
Didn't notice anything 
No frame to the door 

Every birthday candle 
That ever got blown out 
Is one more year of someone trying 
To figure it all out 


Is it true? Is it done? 
Is it over? 
Is it true? Is it done? 
Is it over? 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing at all? 

But still the same 
I shall turn the same way to my name 

Don't say you need trouble 
To run from, to run 
We see lines of symmetry 
Sometimes when there are none 

I really like it quiet 
But I really like it loud 
Always changing but never changing 
Never can slow down 

Is it true? Is it done? 
Is it over? 
Is it true? Is it done? 
Is it over? 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing? Are you dancing at all? 

You better start dancing 
Are you dancing at all? 
You better start dancing 
Are you dancing at all? 

Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing at all? 
Are you dancing at all?
