Dance Hall
By Danielle Bradbery
Standard Tuning
Capo 1st Fret
This was tabbed from the acoustic performance and kind
of mixes what is supposed to be played on two guitars.
That's why there are several different barre chords used.
To make it easier to play you can just skip the barre chords
and play on the chords on the lower frets.
Chords:

This week was hard, it's getting dark

The weeds are hot in my front yard

Nothing but a pile of dirt and dust
But, baby...

It's just you and me in these headlights

Two-stepping in rolled-up Levi jeans

There ain't no band playing "Ramblin' Man"

When the sun comes out, we'll head back into town
But for now...
