We Came To Dance- The Gaslight Anthem

Intro:

Verse 1:
Em G
We are the last of the jukebox Romeos,
D C
We are romantics by the light of the fourway
Em G

Came to sing out a chorus, reinvent the good times
D C
Bring'in it all back home again

[Chorus:]
Em
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
G
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D C
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on

Interlude: Em G D C

Verse 2:
Em
And in the sun-stabled arena
G
Of what's left or become of my America
D C
I'm asking this dance, so come take my hand, come on
Em
And in the sun-stabled arena
G
Of what's left or become of my America
D C
I'm asking this dance, so come take my hand, come on

Chorus:
Em
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
G
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D C
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on

Bridge:
(One strum- *)

Em* G*
And if they end it all by the end of tonight
D* C
If the big bomb drops down over this quiet Edison sky
Em G
We'll blow one last kiss to all the beautiful nights like this
D (Dsus4 hammer) C
Under the central Jersey sky

Chorus:
Em (Staccato)
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
G (Staccato)
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D(Staccato) C (Staccato)
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on

Outro:
Em
'Cause you ain't never had a night on the town
G
Like I could show you such a night on the town
D
And you ain't never had a song you could sing
C
Well it's a deep, dark night, and I hear you, I've been there
Em
But these are the songs that we sing
G
Whoa-oh, these are the songs that we sing
D D
You've never seen a two step (two-step)
C
Like when you seen it from your mama's house
Em
When the kids flash like lightning to the very best dancers around
G
We learned from the very best dancers around
D
We learned from the very best dancers in town
C
Come take my hand
G
'Cause mama we came to dance
