== CHORUS == (that’s one step two step dance step etc)
Guitar 1 (not sure about this)
e|-----------------------------|
B|-------13----------13--------|
G|-----------------------------| repeated – this sounds a bit strange
D|-12----------12----------12--| on its own but it fits in with Guitar
A|-----------------------------| 2 on the CD
E|-----------------------------|
Guitar 2 – continues from bridge
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------12-12-14-14-14-14-14-14-|
D|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-15-15-------------------------|

B|--------------------------------|
G|-14-14-14-14-14-14-12-12--------|
D|-------------------------15-15--|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
I think Guitar 2s part changes slightly as the chorus goes on, into this:
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------12-12-14-14-14-14-14-14-|
D|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-15-15-------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|------------------------------|
B|---13--------------------13---|
G|-14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14------|
D|------------------------------|
A|------------------------------|
E|------------------------------|
I think the part at the end is like this:
Guitar 1 Guitar 2
e|-------------------------------| e|-10-10-10-10-10-13-10-10-10-10-|
B|-------------------------------| B|-------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------| G|-------------------------------|
D|-12-12-12-12-12-15-12-12-12-12-| D|-------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------| A|-------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------| E|-------------------------------|
== LYRICS ==
A sun, a sign, a sun, a dance step for two,
A sun, a sign, a dance step for two,
A sun, a sign, a dance step for two, (VERSE)
A sun, a sign, a dance step for two,
That’s too far not to swim (x12)
Sun steps this dance is for you
That’s one step, one step, two steps,
That’s two steps, two steps, speedbikes,
That’s one step, one step, two steps, (CHORUS)
That’s two steps, dance step, speedbikes,
That’s one sign, one sign, one sign,
That’s one sign, two steps, speedbikes,
Let’s swim, let’s swim, let’s swim this off,
Let’s swim, let’s swim, let’s swim this off.
(Repeats with slight variations until the end)
