[Verse 1]
Am C F C
Well I don't know what to say to the prettiest bridesmaid
F C
And It's easy for some, but you got me stunned and dumb
Am C
And you know how it is when a man gets down
F C
He won't know love from a hole in the ground
Am F
But I'm sick of the wait, and I'm sick of the fear
C
And it ends right here
[Verse 2]
Am C F C
Things were bad for me; I came across the sea never knowing just what I'd do
F C
I got your old man doused at the the public house and he took me on his crew
Am C
So I worked my way; showed up every day
F C Am
And I was like an only so-------n
F C
Oh, I was a lonely one
[Verse 3]
Am C F C
And you know I do, whenever I see you I always try to avert my eyes
F C
But you caught my gaze as the glasses raise and we toast the groom and bride
Am C
And though you're in the sight of every man tonight
F C
I keep saying it to myself
Am F C
"If the whisky's strong, and the band plays on, I can do no wrong."
[Chorus]
G Am
So dance with me, won't you dance with me
F C
Little Katie don't you turn me down
G Am
I been in a rut, but I could get the guts
F C
If I can make it through one more round
G Am
And when the music stops, little goldilocks
F C
In my heart you can confide
G F C
Hand in hand in the English Countryside
[Verse 3]
Am C F C
I had a girl back home. She left me all alone said I was born with two left feet
F C
And that's the truth of it. You know I must admit I can barely walk down the street
Am C
But if it takes one more to get me on that floor
F C Am
Let me see what I can do--------o
F C
To spend some time with you
[Chorus]
G Am
So dance with me, won't you dance with me
F C
Little Katie don't you turn me down
G Am
I been in a rut, but I could get the guts
F C
If I can make it through one more round
G Am
And when the music stops, little goldilocks
F C
In my heart you can confide
G F C
Arm in Arm in the English Countryside
Alright.

[Bridge]
Am C F C
And now we're face to face with my hands around your waist
F C
And out here where we meet, there's no floor beneath my feet
Am C
You never had your fun with an American
F C Am
But I can tell you that it's alri--------ight
F C
Oh, Katie you're on my mind
[Chorus]
G Am
So dance with me, won't you dance with me
F C
Little Katie don't you turn me down
G Am
I been in a rut, but I could get the guts
F C
If I can make it through one more round
G Am
And when the music stops, little goldilocks
F C
In my heart you can confide
G F C
Lay you downin the English Countryside
G F C
Lay you downin the English Countryside
