[Verse]
 
Dm7         Gm7     Am7    Bb(maj7)                    Am7
I feel so unsure      As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
Dm                 Gm7                   Am7 Bb(maj7)
As the music dies  Somthing in your eyes     Calls to mind a silver screen
    Am7
And all it's sad goodbyes
Dm                             Gm7                     Am7
I'm never gonna dance again    Guilty feet have got no rythm
Bb(maj7)                         Am7
Though it's easy to pretend    I know you're not a fool
Dm
Should have known better than to cheat a friend
    Gm7                             Am7
And waste the chance that I've been given
Bb(maj7)                             Am7                   Dm
So I'm never gonna dance again   The way I danced with you

Dm7            Gm7  Am7   Bb(maj7)          Am7
Time can never mend   The careless whispers of a good friend
Dm                                                Gm7
To the heart and mind  (The Little Guitar Solo)   Ignorance is kind
