Verse

        G               Em            C                 G
She was standing in the clearing, her dress down to her knees 

         G              Em            C           D        G
With the daisies all around her, that swayed like Heaven's trees 


    G                 Em           C                     G
The breeze hit like a whisper, the sun shed light on her face 

    G                    Em               C          D      G
And that’s when my heart told me, I would never forget this place

      G              Em             C                  G
I was sitting on the hillside, as I watched my girl in blue 

    G             Em            C       D       G
Her figure like a portrait that someone perfect drew 


       G                  Em         C            G
Well I broke free from my rapture as she began to sing 

    G                Em           C          D      G
And swaying with the daisies, she moved just like a dream 


Chorus: 

   B              Em           C                   G
So Dance my little darling, oh won't you dance for me 

      G         Em               C      D      G
Let’s take this day together, as far as we can see

Verse 

  G              Em             C                 G
I keep on walking backwards, on all these one way streets 

    G               Em           C        D         G
and past these picket fences and charming well kept trees 

       G            Em           C                     G
Well I look over my shoulder, my girl in blue is still there

     G             Em            C        D         G
Just clinging to the daisies and to these hopes and prayers


Chorus: 

   B              Em           C                   G
So dance my little darling, oh won't you dance for me 

      G         Em               C      D      G
Let’s take this day together, as far as we can see


B              Em           C                   G
Dance my little darling, oh won't you dance for me 

      G         Em               C      D      G
Let’s take this day together, as far as we can see

          G           Em             C      D      G
Oh, let’s take this day together, as far as we can see
