[E] It's too [B] much rain for [A]
driving [E] movies Instead [B] they build a [A] late night [E] [D] rendezvous
You might get [A] lucky, it's understood [E] that it's up to you
There every black [B] dress [A] hides a [E] story And [B] the [A] score of the pack begins [E] with [D] you
You don't believe [A] it, it's understood [E] that it's strictly true
[D] So try out your shuffle [E] and see [D] Try out the steps [E] cause the lesson's free
[D] Try the shuffle [G] and
[E] see
Like you're guests [A] of the nation [B] And you'll never have [A] to play
[E] You've got a new [A] occupation So [B] you can dream to a breaking [A] day
[E]
You're guests [A] of the nation So [B] you can dance your life [E]
away
Winter [B] brings its [A] own [E] surprises Here's [B] a change to [A] cheer you [E] through and [D] through
And though you're playing [A] it on time It's understood [E] that the blame's on you
[B] [A] [E] You have [B] a warm [A] shrug on your [E] shoulders Nobody [B] [A] needs to tell you [E] what to [D] do
And if it comes [A] to the crunch You can shove [E] up a thing or [B] two
[A] [D] And try the shuffle [E] and see [D]
Try out the steps [E] cause the lesson's free
