You used to take me dancing [Dbm] tonight.
[Abm] _ _ _
[Dbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Well enough to be her dad.
But the [E] young men were just mad they nursed their [A] grievances. _ _
_ _ [Gbm] But she was flattered by his charm.
It wouldn't do [Dbm] her any harm.
They'd all have their chances.
_ [Ab] _ _
_ [Dbm] He sent her flowers and limousines.
She was treated [E] like a queen and [A] anything she ever wanted
was no problem for a man [E] like him.
[Gbm] And everyone expected soon that you could ask him [A] for the moon
if [Ab] she would wear his ring. _ _ _
_ [Dbm] Throwing glasses from his friends in the homes
at [E] the weekends of high society.
_ [A] _ _
_ [E] [Gbm] But at one degree's removal what he'd lost in [A] their approval
he [Ab] made up for with a certain notoriety. _
_ [E] But their [Dbm] wives had colder glances.
[B] They'd a [E] need for such romances.
And [A] they'd confer on all the thoughts that they were picking. _
_ [E] [Gbm] But he didn't give a damn.
He never felt more [A] like a man.
But all [Ab] the time the clock was ticking. _ _ _
But [E] all would envy
_ [A] [Ab] the older man [Dbm] and his beautiful young wife. _ _
[E] _ All would [A] envy.
_ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _
_ [Dbm] In a house upon a hill she was [E] there with time to kill.
She'd lived her life she'd only dreamed.
But life was never what it seemed.
[Gbm] To all the old friends she'd ignored.
She'd deny that she [E] was bored.
She had [Db] no time for dancing.
No time for [Ab] dancing.
[Dbm] But the clock upon the wall
this ticking in [E] the hall always [A] reminded her
[E] _ _ _
[A] _ [Abm] [Gbm] life was going on [Dbm] elsewhere.
[B] [Gbm] She was happy and [A] she swore she [Ab] wouldn't change a thing. _ _ _
_ [E] All would envy
_ [Ab] the older man [Dbm] and his beautiful young wife. _ _
[B] _ [E] All would envy.
_ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dbm] _
_ [Gbm] Now it's [Gb] five o'clock a.m.
She must have spent the [Dbm] night again with that [E] old friend [D] of hers.
She loves to [E] dance.
[Gbm] She's missing more and more these days.
I'm still stuck in [Dbm] my old ways.
Perhaps she needs [A] a little more romance. _ _
[E] _ [Gb] But the clock upon the [Gbm] wall
ever ticking in [Dbm] the hall
she must be home soon.
[Ab] _ _ _
_ [A] Where a younger man would weep
he [Abm] takes a pill and goes to _ [Dbm] sleep. _ _ _ _
The who would [A] envy
_ [Ab] the older man [Dbm] and his beautiful young wife. _
[E] The [A] who would envy.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ [A] _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Eb] _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
