Verse 1:

A
Lost my heart to a dancer, an easy pick up for chancers

D               E            A
What she saw in me, I don't know

A
When she said she'd been behaving, 

A
I found it hard to stop myself from laughing

D                 E         A          
I think I'll head off, in fact 

D              E                 A
dig me in deep guys I won't be coming back

(Bass plays octaves of the verse chords)

Chorus: x2

A                                                  
What's that you said my love? 

F#m
Yes, I know what you've been through

    D                          E                                        
And that's why I can't stay... We can no longer cheat you

(A octave on bass)

Verse 2

A
I lost my heart to a dancer, 

A
an easy pick up for chancers

D               E
What she saw in me i don't know (oh yeah)

A
She became depressed, that's down to boredom

A
She should have said I could have scored some 

D                  E
things to pass the time

   A
Or took her out

D             E             A
Turning in at eight, what's that about?
