\begin{verse}
|
|
I \chord{G}danced in the morning when the \chord{e}world was \chord{G}begun, \\
|
|
I \chord{a}danced in the moon and the \chord{D}stars and the sun, \\
|
|
I \chord{G}came down from heaven and I \chord{e}danced on the earth, \\
|
|
At \chord{D}Bethlehem I \chord{C}had my \chord{G}birth.

\begin{verse}
|
|
Ref.: \chord{G}Dance, dance, \chord{e}wherever you may be, \\
|
|
\chord{G}I am the Lord of the \chord{D}Dance, said he, \\
|
|
and I'll \chord{G}lead you \chord{e}all, \chord{G}wherever you may be, \\
|
|
And I'll \chord{D}lead you all in the \chord{G}Dance, \chord{G}said he.

\begin{verse}
|
|
I danced for the scribe and the pharisee, \\
|
|
But they would not dance and they wouldn't follow me. \\
|
|
I danced for the fishermen, for James and John \\
|
|
They came to me and the Dance went on.
|
|
\end{verse}

|
\begin{verse}
|
|
I danced on the Sabbath when I cured the lame; \\
|
|
The holy people said it was a shame. \\
|
|
They whipped and they stripped and they hung me on high, \\
|
|
And they left me there on a Cross to die.
|
|
\end{verse}

|
\begin{verse}
|
|
I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black \\
|
|
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back. \\
|
|
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone, \\
|
|
But I am the Dance, and I still go on.
|
|
\end{verse}

|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
They cut me down and I leapt up high; \\
|
|
I am the life that'll never, never die; \\
|
|
I'll live in you if you'll live in me - \\
|
|
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.
