The Christmas Dance

G

[Verse 1]
  Am                    D               G
Tonight's the Christmas dance in London town
    Am                 D               G
The lights are up, the snow is falling down
Em         Gaug              G              F#5
Like every year I catch your eye across the floor
    Am            D
But too afraid to do much more

[Chorus]
       G         Am
At the Christmas dance
     C             D                     G
That magic time of year when dreams come true
                    Am
Yeah, the Christmas dance
    C            Cm             G
The only dance I wanna dance is you
Em                              A7                         D       N.C.
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
                 G
At the Christmas dance

[Verse 2]
  Am                 D                   G
I combed my hair and straightened out my tie
     Am             D             G
This year I'm gonna ask you do or die (die)
Em            Gaug            G            F#5
And I'll need every ounce of courage I can find
Am                  D
Feet don't fail me, love be kind

[Chorus]
       G         Am
At the Christmas dance
     C             D                     G
That magic time of year when dreams come true
              Am
The Christmas dance
    C            Cm             G
The only dance I wanna dance is you
Em                              A7                         D       N.C.
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
                 G
At the Christmas dance

[Bridge]
F                         G
No more searching love at last (no more searching love at last)
F                           G
No more ghosts of Christmas past (no more ghosts of Christmas past)
F                  Eb                       D
Under the mistletoe we kissed and danced so slow

[Guitar Solo]
G

[Verse 3]
Em           G                Am7          D
And when our children ask the meaning of romance
D                            N.C.
(a precious time for romance)

[Chorus]
         G         Am
It's the Christmas dance
     C             D                     G
That magic time of year when dreams come true
                 Am
At the Christmas dance
    C            Cm               G
The only dance I want to dance is you
Em                              A7                         D       N.C.
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
                 G
At the Christmas dance
