C F F G
seamstress for the band
C F C F
Pretty eyed, pirate smile,
C F F G
you'll marry a music man

F Em7 Am7 D7 (or just a regular D)

dancing in the sand

Tiny dancer in my hand

VERSE 2:

C F C F

PRE-CHORUS:
-----------
Ab Bb
But oh how it feels so real,
Gm7 Cm
lying here with no one near
Ab Bb
Only you and you can hear me
G/B G/B*
when I say softly, slowly


In the chorus the C is probably supposed to be C/E.
I just use the regular C, but if you wanna use C/E
it's played either like this (032010) or (xx2010).

CHORUS:
-------
F C Dm C <--play this C real quickly
Hold me closer tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway
F C Dm
Lay me down in sheets of linen
F C G
You had a busy day today


REPEAT CHORUS

INTERLUDE:
----------

It's something like this and then:]
