Genesis
We Can't Dance
Tabbed by Frederic Maquet. [email protected]
This is a classic rock tune and I couldn't believe no one had tabbed it
(although it is
pretty simple)....This is by no means entirely correct, as the original
has a synthesizer that
adds a good bit of the punch, and the bass does a lot too.
If some of the chords seem unusual, it's because I wanted it to sound as
Bass-y as
possible (to give it some crunch!). You can always use the normal
chords although
it'll sound less "authentic". Enjoy.

Hot sun Beating Burning wal- around
down my feet king
C C G G F G G
Hot sun beating down
C C G G Bb C
burning my feet just walking around.
(Same thing:)
Hot sun making me sweat
'Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
Chorus: (same tune as verse)
-------
C C G G F G G
I can't dance, I can't talk.
C C G G Bb C
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling everything.
Verse 2:
--------
Blue jeans sitting on the beach,
her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach.
She's got a body under that shirt,
but all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
'Cause, I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
No, I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling.

Bb F
And checking everything is in place,
C
you never know who's looking on.
Verse 3:
--------
Young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
Thick smoke, see her smiling through.
I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
But I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling

End:

Play chorus lots of time with loads of scat vocals...while
playing the "intro-riff"...
and singing:
"I won't dance, please don't ask me..."
