Main Melody x2 Verse 2: D Em7 The Can Can's such a pretty show They'll steal your heart away D Em7 But backstage, back on earth again The dressing rooms are great D Em7 They come on strong and it ain't too long Before they make you feel a man D Em7 But love is blind and you soon will find You're just a boy again Chorus Play around with D chord during 'solo' Main melody x2 Verse 3: D Em7 When you want her lips, you get a cheek Makes you wonder where you are D Em7 If you want some more and she's fast asleep Leaves you twinkling with the stars. D Em7 Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say D Em7 You'll have to learn, just like me And that's the hardest way Chorus Main melody x2 Start ooh la la-ing Main Melody x4 Play intro/outro Questions, problems, corrections, or even better, compliments, Mail me: Danny Laycock (*)
