Idol Billy — Dancing with Myself
E On the floors of Tokyo A Or down in London town to go, go B With the record selection And the mirror's reflection A I'm dancing with myself E When there's no-one else in sight A In the crowded lonely night B Well I wait so long for my love vibration A And I'm dancing with myself E Oh dancing with myself A Oh dancing with myself B Well there's nothing to lose And there's nothing to prove A I'll be dancing with myself E E If I looked all over the world A And there's every type of girl B But your empty eyes Seem to pass me by A Leave me dancing with myself E So let's sink another drink A 'Cause it'll give me time to think B If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance A And I'll be dancing with myself E Oh dancing with myself A Oh dancing with myself B Well there's nothing to lose And there's nothing to prove A I'll be dancing with myself E - A - B - A Solo: E - A - B - A }x4 A E If I looked all over the world A And there's every type of girl B But your empty eyes Seem to pass me by A Leave me dancing with myself E So let's sink another drink A 'Cause it'll give me time to think B N/ C If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance A And I'll be dancing with myself E Oh dancing with myself A Oh dancing with myself B If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance B If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance B If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance B - B E - A - B - A (Foreach Line) Dancing with myself Dancing with myself Dancing with myself Dancing with myself Solo Repeated: E - A - B - A }x2 E If I looked all over the world A And there's every type of girl B But your empty eyes Seem to pass me by A Leave me dancing with myself E So let's sink another drink A 'Cause it'll give me time to think B N/ C If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance A And I'll be dancing with myself E - A - B - A Oh dancing with myself Oh dancing with myself If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance (Loop til fade)
