The careless whispers, of a good friend
Dm (riff.1)Bb
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
Bbmaj7
There's no comfort in the truth
Am7 (riff.2)
Pain is all you'll find
Dm--- | Bb | Bbmaj7 | Am7 |
Dm Bb Bbmaj7 | Am7
Should've known better, yeah
“Dm” “Bb” “Bbmaj7” “Am7” _2x_
Dm Bb
I feel so unsure
Bbmaj7 Am7
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
Dm Bb
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Bbmaj7
Calls to mind a silver screen
Am7
And all its sad good-byes
Dm C
I'm never gonna dance again
Bb
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Bbmaj7
Though it's easy to pretend
Am7
I know your not a fool
Dm C
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
Bb
And waste the chance that I'd been given
Bbmaj7
So I'm never gonna dance again
Am7
The way I danced with you

Dm Bb
Time can never mend
Bbmaj7 Am7
The careless whispers, of a good friend
Dm (riff.1)Bb
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
Bbmaj7
There's no comfort in the truth
Am7 (riff.2) Dm---
Pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
“Dm” “Bb” “Bbmaj7” “Am7” _2x_
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Dm Bb
Now that you're gone
Bbmaj7 Am7
Now that you're gone
Dm Bb
Now that you're gone
Bbmaj7
Was what I did so wrong, so wrong
Am7
That you had to leave me alone
