Sweet Dancer chords by The Waterboys

Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:

    E
The girl goes dancing there
       A                    B
On the leaf-sown, new-mown, smooth grass
       C#m
Of the garden
                        F#m
Escaped from her bitter youth
                   Bsus4
Escaped out of her crowd
              B
Or out of her black cloud
🎸

Chorus:

E           A         B
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer

Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer

Verse 2:

           E
If strange men come from the house
   A                      B
To lead her away, please, do not say
      C#m
She's crazy
                 F#m
Lead them gently astray
                   Bsus4
Let her finish her dance
           B
Finish her dance

Chorus:

E           A         B
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer
E           A         B
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer

Bridge:

    C#m
She sings as the moon sings
     B
I am I, I am I
    A
The greater grows my light
    E                    E B
The further shall I fly
  C#m
I hear the wind a-blow
  B
I hear the grass a-grow
    A
And all that I know
  B
I know, I know

Verse 3:

    E
The girl goes dancing there
       A                    B
On the leaf-sown, new-mown, smooth grass
       C#m
Of the garden
                   F#m
Let her finish the dance
                   Bsus4
Let her finish the dance
           B
Finish the dance

Chorus:

E           A         B
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer
E           A         B
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer
