Key: C
Introduction:
C G Am F
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by.
C G
It's so hard to make every note bend just right.
C G Am F
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace,
C G C
But a tune for the dancing is there in its place.
C G Am F
The dance floor's for gliding, not jumping over ponies,
C G
Where boots and gold bracelets come and meet as they should.
C G Am F
It's for celebrating a Friday night romance,
C G C
Forgetting the bad stuff and just feeling good.
Chorus
D A Bm G
An arm's just an arm till it's wrapped around a shoulder.
D A
Looped side by side they go stepping out together.
D A Bm G
A note's just a note till you wake from your slumber
D A D
And dare to discover the new melody
D A Bm G
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by.
D A
it's so hard to make every note bend just right.
D A Bm G
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace,
D A D
But a tune for the dancing is there in its place.
