[Intro]
F Bm F Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm
Met a dancer
C
Who was high in a field
D
From her movement
Em C
Caught my breath on my way home
G7 Dm
Couldn't stop that sprinning force
G7
I felt envy
Dm
Everything around seemed to giggle glee
F G F G
She walked up with a flower and I cared
F Bm F Bm
[Verse 2]
Bm
Saw the dancer
C D
Who gets wild to the beats of record rhythms
Em C
But I'm always away for weeks
G7
That pass slow my
Dm
Mind gets lost
G7 Dm
Feeling envy for the kid who'll dance despite anything
F G F
I walk out in the flowers and feel better
[Bridge]
F G C
If I could just leave my body for the night
Dm Dm Dm Dm F G C Dm Dm Dm Dm
[Pre-Chorus]
F G
Then we could be dancing
C Dm
No more missing you while I'm gone
F G
There we could be dancing
C Dm
And you'd smile and say, "I like this song"
F G
And when our eyes will meet then
C Dm
We will recognize nothing's wrong
F G
And I wouldn't feel so selfish
C Dm
I won't be this way very long
[Chorus]
G Dm
To hold you in time
G Dm
To hold you in time
G Dm
To hold you in time
G Dm
To hold you in time

[Verse 3]
Bm
While we were dancing
C
Early hours
D
Drunken days finally ended
E C
And the streets turned for a pillowcase
G7 Dm
Then I fumbled our good lock
G7 Dm
Then the ecstasy turns to rising light
Through our windowpane
F
Now I'm gone
G F
I left flowers for you there
F Bm F Bm
