Looking back on the memory of
D G
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
G C
For a moment all the world was right
D C/E D/F#
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye
Chorus:
C D
And now I'm glad I didn't know
Bm C D
The way it all would end the way it all would go
C D
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the
Bm
pain
C D G
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Verse 2:
Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I the king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have chanced it all
And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Bridge:
C D
Yes my life is better left to chance
Bm C
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss
D G
the dance
