The Dance

	  		(   G      C     D     G )  D/F# 
Looking back on the memory of 
The dance we shared beneath the stars above 
For  a moment  all the world was right 
How could I have  known 
that you'd  ever say goodbye?
(   C    D   Bm     C   D  )   G  
And now I'm glad  I didn't know 
The way it all would end 
The way it all would go 
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain 
But I'd have had to miss the dance
(   G      C     D     G )  D/F# 
Holding you I held everything 
For a moment wasn't I a king?
If I'd only  known how the king would fall
Then who's to say ?
You know I might have changed it all 
(  C    D   Bm     C   D  )    G  
And now I'm glad  I didn't know 
The way it all would end 
The way it all would go 
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain 
But I'd have had to miss the dance
