For A Dancer ? JACKSON BROWNE

C                     F
  Keep a fire burning in your eye
C                      F
  Pay attention to the open sky
C                     F                    C    G
  You never know what will be coming down

C                         F
  I don?t remember losing track of you
C                                F
  You were always dancing in and out of view
C                         F                 C    G
  I must?ve thought you?d always be around
Am                      F                         C
  Always keeping things real by playing the clown
             G
  Now you?re nowhere to be found

C   F   C   G

C                                F
  I don?t know what happens when people die
C                                F
  Can?t seem to grasp it as hard as I try
(F)           C                       F
  It?s like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
               C                     G
  That I can?t sing  -  I can?t help listening
C                                 F
  And I can?t help feeling stupid standing ?round
C                F
  Crying as they ease you down
C                          F                      C
  ?Cause I know that you?d rather we were dancing
G                         Am
  Dancing our sorrow away
F
  Right on dancing
        C                   G
	  No matter what fate chooses to play
                                      C
  There?s nothing you can do about it anyway

       F                 C
  Just do the steps that you?ve been shown
     F               C            G
  By everyone you?ve ever known
 Am                     C7
  Until the dance becomes your very own
F               G
  No matter how close to yours
Am                            F
  Another?s steps have grown
         C                G
  In the end there is one dance you?ll do alone

C   F   C   G

Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
And just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found

Am              F                    C
  Don?t let the uncertainty turn you around

  	  The world keeps turning around and around
     G                          C
  Go on and make a joyful sound

    F           C
  Into a dancer you have grown
         F             C               G
  From a seed somebody else has thrown
Am                     C7                      F
  Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
F                      G                    Am
  And somewhere between the time you arrive
                      F
  And the time you go
              C                     G
  May lie the reason you were alive

  But you?ll never know

C   F   C   G   C   G   C
