Start Jamming...
[E] You can dance, every dance with the guy who gives you the eye to let [B] him hold you tight
You can smile, every smile for the man who held your [E] hand and he propelled the light
But [A] don't forget who's taking you home and in [E] whose arms you're gonna be
[B] So darling, say the last [E] dance for me
Oh I know, that the music's fine, that sparkling wine
[B] Go and have your fun, laugh and sing
But while you're apart, don't give your [E] heart to anyone
But [A] don't forget who's taking you home and in [E] whose [B] arms you're gonna be
So darling, say the last [E] dance for me
Baby don't [B] you know I love you so
Can't you feel [E] it when we touch
I will never [B] never let you go
I love [E] you oh so much
You can dance, go and carry on
Till the night is gone [B] and it's time to go
If he asks, if you're all alone
Can he take [F#m] you home, [E] you must tell him no
Cause [A] don't forget who's taking you
[E] [B] So darling, say the last [E] dance for me
[B]
[E] [B]
[E] Cause [A] don't forget who's taking you home and in [E] whose arms you're gonna be
[B] So darling, say the last [E] dance for me
Mmm [B]
say the last [E] dance for me
Mmm [B]
say the last dance for me
[E]
