I'm good.
This is a song that when he asked before things kind of got a little out of hand here,
he asked what my favorite song was of the stuff that we do.
And this is hands down my very, very favorite song.
I wonder if it will be for all of my life.
If it is, I think I'm going to be okay with it.
It's called The [E] Dance.
Looking [Cm]
[D] [G]
back on [C] the memory of the [D] dance we shared [G] beneath the stars [A] above.
And for [G] a moment all [C] the world was right.
But how [A] could I have known that [C] you'd ever say [A] goodbye.
And that [C] I [D] didn't know the way it all [Bm] would end, the way it all [C] would go.
[D] Our [C] lives are better than [D] two chances.
I could have [Bm] missed the pain, but I'd have had [C] to miss [D] the [G] day.
Holding you, I [C] held everything.
[D] Three more minutes, or [G] was I not [D] here.
[G] If I'd only known how [C] the king would fall.
[D] He'd say, [C] you know I might have changed [D] it all.
[C] And that I [D] didn't know the way it all would end, [Bm]
the way it all [C] would go.
[D] [C] Our lives are better than [D] two chances.
I could have [Bm] missed the pain, but I'd have had [C] to miss [D] the [G] day.
It's my [C] life, it's better than two [D] chances.
I could have missed [Bm] the pain, but I'd have had [C] to miss [D] the day.

[C] To everybody that's [D] here tonight, either on the radio or right here in person,
[Em] I don't know if you'll ever experience this, but going somewhere far, far away from your home
and still feeling at home is quite a thing [C] to experience.
Thank you very much for it.
God bless [D] you guys.
Have a good night.
[Em]
[C] [D]

[C] [N]
If you [Ab] can, if you guys don't mind, let's have a big hand for the band.
Let's get them back up here.
[N]
[Em] [A] [Bb]
[Gb] [E] [A] I tell you [N] what, we can request and stuff.
If we can't play, we'll just tell you no.
I mean, that's all we can do.
But if anybody has any things, you said the river, we'd be happy to try the river.
And some things also that take a lot of fiddle, you gotta know that Jimmy hasn't played with us that long,
so we're kind of carrying him [G] right now.
He'll find his way, so we're gonna try this.
