[E] [A] [Em]
[E] One more game, one [A] more chance, [D]
[F#m] one [B] more orchestrated song [E] and [A] dance
[E] We'll be up front and speak as we say this [A] for a lifetime
[D] [A] We'll [G#m] dance [Em] together and try and make the night unwind
[A] [E] When it strikes on and [F#m] it's time to be useful or it's [A] time to turn the [E] wall away

[D]
[A] Can [B] somebody help me [A] to try and make the [Em] night unwind?
