Verse 1:  (spoken - male voice)
           C majorC         FF A minorAm
When I first knew her she was a dancer
           DmDm                   C majorC
I saw her leap, confidently, knowing, that should she fall
             G+G    EbmEbm        E7E7 FF
It would be into the arms of her very own partner
        DmDm           G+G
She never failed to get a curtain call

Chorus:
  A minorAm          G+G
For years we had been one with the stars
 A minorAm        G+G
A augmentedA Pas de Deux of renown
  FF       G+G    C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm
I’d leap and he’d catch me on the fly
        DmDm   G+G
And gently he’d put me down


Verse 2:
  C majorC       G+G      C majorC  FF
The heights that I reached were dangerous
   A minorAm   DmDm

And felt when I had landed
  FF      DmDm   G+G
His strength was on the wane


Bridge:
FF             E minorEm
Back before my knees were blue
C majorC      G minorGm      B7B7    E MajorE
Backs broke bending in a step for two


Chorus:
  A minorAm          G+G
For years we had been one with the stars
 A minorAm        G+G
A augmentedA Pas de Deux of renown
  FF       G+G    C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm
I’d leap and he’d catch me on the fly
        DmDm    C majorC
But once I came crashing down

Verse 3:
G+G  C majorC   FF
Now I’m a weaver
   A minorAm    DmDm
Wall-hangings, if you please
  C majorC  G+G   EbmEbm E7E7
In everyone I feature
 FF   DmDm      G+G
A augmentedA dancer with bruised knees


Chorus:

But once I came crashing down
