Chords for Lord of the Dance Song with Lyrics (Sydney Carter)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I danced in the morning when the world was begun,
[F#] And I danced in the [B] moon of the stars and the sun.
[E] I came down from heaven and I danced [F#] on the earth,
At [A] Bethlehem [E] I had my birth.
So dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am [F#] the Lord of the dance at [E] Thee,
And I lead you all wherever you may [F#] be,
And I lead you [D] all in the [E] dance at Thee.
I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee,
They would not [B] dance and they would not follow [E] me.
I danced for the fisherman, for James and John,
[F#] They came to me [E] and the dance went on.
So dance, dance, wherever [B] you may be,
I am the Lord of the dance at Thee,
And I lead you all wherever you may be,
And [F#m] I lead you all in the dance at Thee.
I danced on the Sabbath when I cured the lame,
The [B] holy people said it was a shame.
They whipped and they [B] stripped me and they hung me high,
They [F#m] left me there on a cross [E] to die. _
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the [F#m] Lord of the dance at [E] Thee,
And I lead you all wherever you may [F#m] be,
And I lead you all in the [E] dance at Thee.
I [B] danced on a Friday when the sky turned black,
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back.
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone,
[A] But I [B] am the dance and I still go [E] on.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am [F#] the Lord of the dance at [E] Thee,
And I lead you all wherever you may be,
And I [A] lead you all in the dance at Thee.
[F#] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [E] _
[B] They cut me down and I leapt up high,
[F#m] I am the life that'll never, never die,
I live in you if you live in [F#] me.
I am the [A] Lord of the [B] dance at Thee.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the [F#] Lord of the dance at [E] Thee,
And I lead you all wherever you may [F#m] be,
And I lead you [E] all in the dance at Thee.
Dance!
