Careless Whisper
by: haim ben david
[Intro]
Dm Gm Bb Am x 2
[Verse]
Dm
I feel so unsure
Gm Bb Am
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
Dm Gm
as the music dies, something in your eyes
Bb
calls to mind a silver screen
Am
and all its sad good-byes
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
though it's easy to pretend
Am
I know you're not a fool
[Chorus]
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Gm
and waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
so I'm never gonna dance again
Am
the way I danced with you
Dm Gm Bb Am
oohh
{all the same chords}
[Verse]
Dm Gm
Time can never mend
Bb Am
the careless whispers of a good friend
Dm
to the heart and mind
Gm
ignorance is kind
Bb
there's no comfort in the truth
Am
pain is all you'll find
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
though it's easy to pretend
Am
I know you're not a fool
[Chorus]
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Gm
and waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
so I'm never gonna dance again
Am Dm Gm Bb
the way I danced with you
Am
Never without your love
[Bridge]
Dm
Tonight the music seems so loud
Gm
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Bb
Maybe it's better this way
Am
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
Dm
We could have been so good together
Gm
We could have lived this dance forever
Bb Am
But now who's gonna dance with me
Please stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I'm never gonna dance again
Gm
guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bb
though it's easy to pretend
Am
I know you're not a fool
[Chorus]
Dm
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Gm
and waste the chance that I've been given
Bb
so I'm never gonna dance again
Am
the way I danced with you
[Outro]
Dm Gm Bb Am
(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
Dm Gm Bb
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong
Am
that you had to leave me alone
