Lookin' [G]back [C/G] [G] on the [C]mem'ry of
The [D]dance we shared 'neath the [G]stars above
For a mo[C/G]ment [G] all the [C]world was right
How could [D]I have known that you'd [C/E]ever say good-[D/F#]bye
CHORUS:
And [C]now, I'm glad I didn't [D]know
The way it all would [Bm]end the way it all would [C]go [D]
Our [C]lives, are better left to [D]chance
I could have missed the [Bm]pain
But I'd had have to [C]miss [D]the [G]dance
INTRO
Holding [G]you [C/G] [G] I held [C]everything
For a [D]moment, wasn't [G]I the king?
But If I'd [C/G]only [G]known how the [C]king would fall
Hey, [D]who's to say? You know, I [C/E]might have changed it [D/F#]all
CHORUS
OUTRO:
Yes my [C]life, it's better left to [D]chance
I could have have missed the [Bm]pain
But I'd had have to [C]miss [D]the [G]dance
