Thin Lizzy, Dancing In The Moonlight (1977)
Key: :[C#m] (w: Philip Parris Lynott)

INTRO: [*BASS]

VERSE 1:
When I [C#m7] passed you in the [B] doorway
Well you [A] took me with a [E] glance
[C#m7] I should have took that [B] last bus home
But I [A] asked you for a [E] dance

VERSE 2:
Now we go [C#m7] steady to the [B] pictures
I always get [A] chocolate stains on my [E] pants
And my [C#m7] father he's going [B] crazy
He say's [A] I'm living in a [E] trance

CHORUS:
But I'm [G#5] dancing [B5] in the [C#m7] moonlight
[B] It's caught me in its [A] spotlight
[E] It's alright [G#5] dancing [B5] in the [C#m7] moonlight
[B] On the long hot [A] summer [E] night

VERSE 3:
It's [C#m7] three o'clock in the [B] morning
And I'm [A] on the streets [E] again
I [C#m7] disobeyed another [B] warning
I [A] should have been in by [E] ten

VERSE 4:
Now I [C#m7] won't get out until [B] Sunday
I'll have to [A] say I stayed with [E] friends
Oh [C#m7] but it's a habit worth [B] forming
If it [A] means to justify the [E] end

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE: [over *BASS]
And I'm walking home
The last bus is long gone
But I'm dancing in the moonlight

INSTRUMENTAL:

REPEAT CHORUS:
