Sweet Is The Melody

 
C                  G          Am          F 
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by. 
     C                                                      G  
It's so hard to make every note bend just right.  
    C                      G           Am                F 
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace, 
         C                                G              C  
But a tune for the dancing is there in its place.  

       C                       G             Am                F 
The dance floor's for gliding, not jumping over ponies, 
           C                                                                       G  
Where boots and gold bracelets come and meet as they should.  
     C          G           Am                 F 
It's for celebrating a Friday night romance, 
     C                                    G              C  
Forgetting the bad stuff and just feeling good.  

Chorus 

Key Change: 

D   A  

     D                   A            Bm                       G 
An arm's just an arm till it's wrapped around a shoulder.  
D                                                              A  
Looped side by side they go stepping out together.  
    D                   A             Bm                  G 
A note's just a note till you wake from your slumber  
       D                            A         D  
And dare to discover the new melody  

 
D                  A          Bm           G 
Sweet is the melody, so hard to come by.  
     D                                                        A  
it's so hard to make every note bend just right.  
       D                  A             Bm               G 
You lay down the hours and leave not one trace, 
          D                               A              D  
But a tune for the dancing is there in its place.  


D    A    Bm     G  
D         A  
D    A    Bm     G  
D         A      D  


Chorus in D 


D    A    Bm     G  
D         A      D
