Bass Riff (this is pretty close to it but i'm not 100% sure,
        in fact, it might be totally wrong
      but it sounds OK to me! it might be an octave higher)

Intro:  Eii, D, C

               Bass Riff
gtr. under riff:  G, D

Verse1:

G
they put a parking lot on a piece of land
D
where a supermarket used to stand
G
before that they put up a bowling alley
D
at the site that used to be the local pally
C
it's where the big bands used to come and play
G
my sister went there on a saturday

CHORUS1:

     C                               G
come dancing, and all her boyfriends used to come and call
             D             C
why not come dancing? it's only natural


Bass Riff over G, D

Verse2:
another saturday another date
she would be ready but she'd always make him wait
in the hallway in anticipation
he didn't know the night would end up in frustration
he'd end up blowing all his wages for the week
all for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek

CHORUS2:
come dancing, that's how they did it when i was just a kid
when they said come dancing my sister always did

Bass riff over G, D

Bridge:

   Eii              D            C
my sister should've been home by midnight
       Eii            D           C
and my mother used to stay up and wait

it always ended up in a big row
and my sister used to get home late

G
out my window i can see them
D
2 silhouettes saying goodnight in the
G
moonlight by the garden
D
gate

    Eii      D                C
the day they knocked down the pally
   Eii    D         C
my sister stood and cried

the day they knocked down the pally
part of her childhood died, just died

Eii, D, C, D

Bass riff over G, D

Verse3:
now i'm grown up and playing in a band
and there's a car park where the pall used to stand
my sister's married and she lives on an estate
her daughters go out now its her turn to wait
she knows they get away with things she never could
but if i asked her i wonder if she would

CHORUS3:
come dancing, c'mon sis just have yourself a ball
why not come dancing? it's only natural

end on G
