(No Capo)

(Intro.)
|(Em) / / / |(C) / / / |(G) / / / |(G) / / / |(G) /

(Verse)
Lookin (G)back on the (Em)mem'ry of the (D)dance we shared
'neath the (G)stars above
For a  (G)moment all the (C)world was right how could (D)I have known
that you’d (Em)ever say good-(D/F#)bye

(Chorus)
And (C)now, I'm glad I didn't (D)know the way it all would (Bm)end
the way it all would (C)go (D)
Our (C)lives, are better left to (D)chance. I could have missed the (Bm)pain
but I'd have had to (C)miss (D)the (G)dance / / / |(G) / /

(Verse)
Holding (G)you I held (C)everything for a (D)moment
wasn’t (G)I the king? (D)
If I'd (G)only known how the (C)king would fall. Hey (D)who's to say
You know, I (Em)might have changed it (D)all

(Chorus)
And (C)now, I'm glad I didn't (D)know the way it all would (Bm)end
the way it all would (C)go (D)
Our (C)lives, are better left to (D)chance. I could have missed the (Bm)pain
but I'd have had to (C)miss (D)the (G)dance
Yes, my (C)life, it's better left to (D)chance
I could have have missed the (Bm)pain
But I'd have had to (C)miss (D)the (G)dance

(Outro.)
