C                    G  
Looking back on the memory of  
Am                       F  
The dance we shared beneath the stars above  
C                           G  
For a moment all the world was right  
Am                             F  
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye  

C                 G  
And now, I'm glad I didn't know  
Am                       F  
The way it all would end, the way it all would go  
C                          G  
Our lives are better left to chance  
Am                          F  
I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance  

C         G  
Holding you  
Am      F  
I held everything  
C               G  
For a moment, wasn't I the king?  
Am                       F  
But if I'd only known how the king would fall  
C                  G  
Hey, who's to say?  
Am                     F  
You know I might have changed it all  

C                 G  
And now, I'm glad I didn't know  
Am                       F  
The way it all would end, the way it all would go  
C                          G  
Our lives are better left to chance  
Am                          F  
I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance  

C                          G  
Yes, my life is better left to chance  
Am                          F  
I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance
