Verse 2
G
Another Saturday, another date
D
She would be ready
G
but she'd always make them wait
In the hallway, in anticipation
D
He didn't know
G
the night would end up in frustration
C
He'd end up blowing
G
all his wages for the week
D
All for a cuddle
G
and a peck on the cheek
Chorus 2
C
Come dancing
G
That's how they did it when I was just a kid
D
And when they said come dancing
C
My sister always did

Verse 3
G
Now I'm grown up and playing in a band
D
And there's a car park
G
where the palais used to stand
My sister's married and she lives on an estate
D
Her daughters go out,
G
now it's her turn to wait
C
She knows they get away
G
with things she never could
D
G
But if I asked her I wonder if she would
Chorus 3
C
Come dancing
G
Come on sister, have yourself a ball
D
Don't be afraid to come dancing
C
It's only natural
