[Verse 1] [Dm7] I feel so unsure [Gm7] As I [Bbmaj7] take your hand and lead you [Am7] to the dance floor [Dm7] As the music dies [Gm7] Something in your eyes [Bbmaj7] Calls to mind a silver screen And [Am7] all its sad goodbyes
[Chorus] [Dm7] I'm never gonna dance again [Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm [Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend I [Am7] know you're not a fool [Dm7] Should've known better than to cheat a friend And [Gm7] waste the chance that I've been given [Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again The [Am7] way I danced with you - oo - oo
[Dm7][Gm7][Bbmaj7][Am7] ohh oh
[Verse 2] [Dm7] Time can never [Gm7] mend The [Bbmaj7] careless whispers [Am7] of a good friend [Dm7] To the heart and mind [Gm7] Ignorance is kind [Bbmaj7] There's no comfort in the truth [Am7] Pain is all you'll find
[Chorus] [Dm7] I'm never gonna dance again [Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm [Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend [Am7] I know you're not a fool I [Dm7] should've known better than to cheat a friend [Gm7] And waste the chance that I've been given [Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again The [Am7] way I danced with you, ohh oh.
[Interlude] [Dm7][Gm7][Bbmaj7][Am7] Never without your love [Dm7][Gm7][Bbmaj7][Am7]
[Bridge] [Dm7] Tonight, the music seems so loud [Gm7] I wish that we could lose this crowd [Bbmaj7] Maybe it's better this way [Am7] We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say [Dm7] We could have been so good together [Gm7] We could have lived this dance forever But [Bbmaj7] now who's gonna dance with [Am7] me? Please stay
[Chorus] [Dm7] And I'm never gonna dance again [Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm [Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend I [Am7] know you're not a fool I [Dm7] should've known better than to cheat a friend And [Gm7] waste the chance that I've been given [Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again The [Am7] way I danced with you
[Outro] [Dm7] ------ [Gm7] Oh ho----------- [Bbmaj7] ---------- [Am7] --------------- [Dm7] Now that you're [Gm7] gone Now that you're [Bbmaj7] gone [Am7] [Dm7] Now that you're go [Gm7] ne Was what I did so wrong? so [Bbmaj7] wrong, that you had to [Am7] leave me alone?
