D 
Em 
 (E minor) Can you tell  (D major) me where was  (E minor) this dance
D 
 (D major) that you played tonight?
I played a wonderful dance
at the Mormon Church
F# 
Recreation  (F sharp major) Hall
F#m 
in  (F sharp minor) Pomona.
D 
 (D major) What type of dance was this?
Well,
Em 
this is the swingiest  dance you've ever  (E minor) seen.
Man, this was really beautiful.
D 
 (D major) It was a Christmas dance
Eb 
and  (E flat major) this recreation hall
was about as big as our living room.
D 
 (D major) I dig it. It had a hardwood floor,
Eb 
it had a little  (E flat major) stage,
and on the floor
they had a basketball thing marked off,
E 
D 
an (E major) d it was all decorated  (D major) up,
you know, like they really
went to a lot of trouble.
They had these wires
going across the room like
Eb 
 (E flat major) that, and millions of them,
D 
and they had these little thread (D major) s
C# 
coming down with cotton  (C sharp major) balls tied on the end
so it looked like snow
D 
they  (D major) had these trees
Em 
E 
D 
 (E minor) these dead  (E major) trees set  (D major) up on
these pedestal deals
Ebm 
all  (E flat minor) around the wall
D 
Eb 
 (D major) then they were sprayed  (E flat major) with snow
Fm 
E 
 (F minor) an   d they had little  (E major) ribbons
F# 
Fm 
 (F sharp major) bows  and para (F minor) sols
D 
and little  (D major) boofers
and all these things attached to them
and then they had these colored
lights
Eb 
 (E flat major) underneath lighting it up
E 
it was real real  (E major) lovely
D 
And then they had  (D major) the,
when you walked into the place,
D 
they had like  (D major) a beaded drape,
only it wasn't beads,
D 
it was  (D major) these little cotton
balls like snow,
tied onto threads,
D 
and then they had the big crystal  (D major) punch bowls,
and all these wonderful
Mormons
standing around there
D 
getting ready to have this fine party.  (D major) 
So, Ray told me, he says,
you shouldn't smoke
when you go over there,
D 
man, they don't like it.  (D major) So I said,
oh man, he's just being too cautious
because he's a pretty tame guy.
