Lindisfarne - Dance Your Life Away
[Intro]
C Bm E
[Verse 1]
A
Early morning into school
Play the game by the golden rule
E
Do it like that, do it like this
Do it like master, do it like miss
[Verse 2]
A
Put your head down study hard
Don't make no trouble in the old school yard
E
Buy some soap, don't have hope
You'll hang yourself with too much rope
A
Do you believe it? - I don't believe it
[Chorus]
C Bm E
Dance, dance, dance your life away, dance your life away
C Bm E
Dance your life away, dance your life away
[Verse 3]
A
Well, early in the morning, open eyes
Looking for work, surprise, surprise
E
Do it like this, yeah, do it like that
Get on your bike, there's no rabbit in the hat
[Verse 4]
A
Sorry son, there's no work here
Better come back in a week or maybe next year
E
Don't ask questions, don't ask why
You'll leave yourself high and dry
A
Do you believe it? - We don't believe it
[Chorus]
C Bm E
Dance, dance, dance your life away, dance your life away
C Bm E
Dance your life away, dance your life away
[Verse 5]
A
Out with the boys having fun
Everybody trying to be number one
E
Do it like this, do it like that
End up in the same old trap
[Verse 6]
A
Listen to what the preacher say
You got jam tomorrow, but not today
E
He know the score, he told you before
We're all passing through heaven's door
A
Do you believe it? - We don't believe it
[Chorus]
C Bm E
Dance, dance, dance your life away, dance your life away, well
C Bm E
Dance your life away, dance your life away
[Outro] (## fade to end ##)
A
Do you believe it? - I don't believe it
A
Do you believe it? - We don't believe it
A
Do you believe it? - Dance your life away
A
Do you believe it? - Dance your life away
A
Do you believe it? - Dance your life away
A
Do you believe it? - Dance your life away
