Secondary Waltz Chords & Lyrics by Mark Knopfler
Secondary Waltz
guitar chords lyrics
Kill to Get Crimson Version
Intro: E
E
The school Christmas party is coming
B
We ain't doing rugby no more
E
McIntyre�s teaching us waltzing
B
Out on the gymnasium floor
E B
Out on the gymnasium floor
E
McIntyre's out of the army
B
You�ll be slipper�d if you get it wrong
E
McIntyre's din looms loud in the gym
E D B
And we've only got a little short song
A G E
We've only got a little short song
C G
And it's one two three two two we're all a disgrace
C
McIntyre tore us apart
G C
And we dance with ourselves when we�d all found a space
Bm C
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
Am D
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
E (same as intro)
Comes the day of the final manoeuvres
All of our heads are a whirl
It�s getting much closer to D-Day
This time we're gonna do it with girls
This time we're gonna do it with girls
In the arena the ladies were waiting
A twelve year old partner to guide
Some matches were fixed
The rest of us mixed
And a fat girl got left at the side
The fat girl got left at the side
C G
And it's one two three two two we're all a disgrace
C
McIntyre tore us apart
G C
And we dance with ourselves when we�d all found a space
Bm C
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
Am D
Waltzing with fear in our hearts
C G
When you come to my fights and I�m under the lights
G/B C
And you see that my footwork is false
G C
Don't count me out at the start of the bout
Bm C
I'm just doing secondary waltz
Am D
Doing the secondary waltz
E (same as intro) 3X
Then E, D, B and A, G, E (as first couplet at the end)
