You look out of your window,____Into the night____Could be rain, could be snow, But it cant feel as
        Dx2                        Ax2                                                         Dx2
Cold as what youre feeling inside ____And all of you friends are either married, vanished, Or just left
       Ex2                          Dx2                Ex2                      D                 Bmx2
Alone. _____But thats no reason to just stop living. ______Thats no excuse to just give in to a sad and
       Ex2
Lonely heart.


[Chorus]
Ax2                                D               Ex2
Dont forget to dance, no, no, no, Dont forget to smile.
Ax2                               D                Ex2
Dont forget to dance, no, no, no, Forget it for a while.

You walk down the street And all the young punks whistle at you. A nice bit of old,
                                Dx2                                    Ax2
Just goes to show what you can achieve With the right attitude. As you pass them by
                           Dx2                     Ax2
They whisper their remarks one to another, And you give them the eye Even that you
              Dx2                                                  Ex2
Know that you could be their mother. You do the thing you love the most. What separates
Dx2                Ex2                                                  D
You from the rest, _____And what you love to do the most? And when they ask me how you dance,

I say that you dance real close.
