Intro:
Dm  Gm              Bb
   Oh, now that you're gone
             Am
Now that you're gone

Verse 1:
Dm            Gm
I feel so unsure
     Bb                          Am               Dm
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
                  Gm
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Bb
Calls to mind the silver screen
  A                   Dm
And all its sad good-byes

Chorus:

I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
 Though it's easy to pretend
  Am
I know you're not a fool
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
    Gm
And waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
 No, I'm never gonna dance again
    Am                   Dm
The way I danced with you
    Gm
Ohohohoh
        Bb
No, I'm never gonna dance again
          Am
The way I danced with you

Verse 2:
Dm               Gm
Time can never mend
    Bb                Am
The careless whispers of a good friend
Dm
 To the heart and mind
Gm
 Ignorance is kind
Bb
There's no comfort in the truth
A                    Dm
Pain is all you'll find

Chorus:

I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
 Though it's easy to pretend
  Am
I know you're not a fool
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
    Gm
And waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
 No, I'm never gonna dance again
    Am                Dm
The way I danced with you
Dm   Gm               Bb    Am
      Should've known better

Bridge:
  Dm
Tonight the music seems so loud
  Gm
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Bb
Maybe it's better this way
     Am
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
   Dm
We could have been so good together
   Gm
We could have lived this dance forever
    Bb                         A
But no one's gonna dance with me
               Gm
Please stay-ay-ay

Chorus:

I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
 Though it's easy to pretend
  Am
I know you're not a fool
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
    Gm
And waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
 No, I'm never gonna dance again
    Am                Dm
The way I danced with you

Outro:
Dm                Gm
 Now that you're gone
                Bb   Am
Now that you're gone
Dm
(Now that you're gone)
    Gm                        Bb
Was what I did so wrong, so wrong
                 Am           Am
That you had to leave me alone
