Intro: E5


E5
The school Christmas party is coming
                  B5
We ain't doing rugby no more
E5
McIntyre?s teaching us waltzing
                              B5
Out on the gymnasium floor
E5                              B5
Out on the gymnasium floor
E5
McIntyre's out of the army
                              B5 
You?ll be slipper?d if you get it wrong
E5
McIntyre's din looms loud in the gym
                 E5             D5                B5
And we've only got a little short song
          A5             G5                       E5
We've only got a little short song


  
         C5             G5
And it's one two three two two we're all a disgrace
                         C5
McIntyre tore us apart
                                                    G5                  C5
And we dance with ourselves when we?d all found a space
B5                               C5
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
A5                               D5
Waltzing with fear in our hearts



E (same as intro)



Comes the day of the final manoeuvres

All of our heads are a whirl

It?s getting much closer to D-Day

This time we're gonna do it with girls

This time we're gonna do it with girls




In the arena the ladies were waiting

A twelve year old partner to guide

Some matches were fixed

The rest of us mixed

And a fat girl got left at the side

The fat girl got left at the side

         C5             G5
And it's one two three two two we're all a disgrace
                         C5
McIntyre tore us apart
                                                    G5                  C5
And we dance with ourselves when we?d all found a space
B5                               C5
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
A5                               D5
Waltzing with fear in our hearts




      C5                                           G5                      
When you come to my fights and I?m under the lights
                  G5          C5

And you see that my footwork is false
                                 G5              C5
Don't count me out at the start of the bout
            B5                 C5
I'm just doing secondary waltz
A5                  D5
Doing the secondary waltz
