Intro x2 
D - (Gwalk Fdown) - Em 


D 
Bill’s been thinking a lot these days 
          G          F       Em 
About the way things used to be 
D 
He’s never been the kind of man 
   G   F    Em       D 
To put much faith in destiny 

D 
Sometimes he feels the warmth 
     G         F    Em 
Of a fire from long ago 
D                            G 
Sometimes he steps into the night 
    F      Em                  D 
And all he feels is the winter cold 


C         G                D    C 
Everybody dance around the fire tonight 
C                     G                D    
You don’t have to wait ’till it’s your turn 
C         G                             D    C 
Everybody dance a little closer to the flame tonight 
              G 
But don’t get burned 
              D 
Pray that you don’t get burned 
      
     D 
They met in high school 
         G     F     Em 
And they never had a doubt 
D 
There’d be some hard times 
        G          F      Em     D 
But old Bill would find a way to work things out 

Katie had a way about her 
     G        F    Em 
That made old Bill believe 
  D 
A small farm and three kids later 
   G       F            Em      D 
It looked just like the perfect family 
    C       G                      D                   C 
But one day Bill found out what he should’ve known all along: 
            G 
Things fall apart sometimes 
    D                  C                   D   
One minute something’s there and then it’s gone 

D 
With the kids in bed that night 
      G      F        Em 
Katie gently shut the door 
D 
She turned to Bill and said 
    G         F       Em       D 
I’m sorry but I don’t love you anymore 

    D 
And now he spends his days 
     G         F      Em 
Just like he’s always done 
D 
You’d never guess the sorrow 
          G   F  Em        D 
That he’s hid so well from everyone 

D 
The house is empty now 
    G    F            Em  
The kids grown up and gone 
    D 
And Bill slips into bed at night 
     G     F            Em            D 
With Katie right by his side and they hold on 

C         G                D    C  
Everybody dance around the fire tonight 
C                 G                    D 
You don’t have to wait ’till it’s your turn 
C         G                            D     C 
Everybody dance a little closer to the flame tonight 
              G 
But don’t get burned 
              D  
Pray that you don’t get burned
