Intro + Kazoo
G G G G  D D D D

G They put a parking lot on a piece of land
D Where the super G market used to stand
Before that they put up a bowling alley
DOn the site that used to be the local G pally
C That's where the big bands G used to come and play
D My sister went there G on a Saturday
Come C dancin'. All her boyfriends G used to come and call
Why not come D dancin', it's C only natural G

G Another Saturday, another date
D She would be ready but she'd G always make him wait
In the hallway, in anticipation
D He didn't know the night would end up in frustGration.
C He'd end up blowing all his G wages for the week
D All for a cuddle and a G peck on the cheek
Come C dancin'. That's how they did it when G I was just a kid
And when they said come D dancin', my C sister always did G

My Em sister should have D come in at C midnight
D And my Em mom would always D sit up and C wait
D It Em always ended D up in a C big brawl
D When my Em sister used to D get home C late

G Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight
D Two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate G

The Em day they D knocked down the C pally
D My Em sister D stood and C cried
D The Em day they D knocked down the C pally
D Em Part of my D childhood C died, tacet just died.

G Now I'm grown up and playing in a band
D And there's a car park where the G pally used to stand
C My sister's married and she G lives on an estate
D Her daughters go out, now G it's her turn to wait
C She knows they get away with G things she never could
D But if I asked her I G wonder if she would
Come C dancin'. Come on sister, G have yourself a ball
Don't be afraid to come D dancin', it's C only natural
G It's C only natural G
