(Verse 1)
[C]I was reminiscing just the other day
While having coffee
all alone, and Lord, it took me away
[F]Back to a first glance feeling on New York time
Back when you fit my poems like a perfect rhyme
[C]Took off faster than a green light, go
Yeah, you skip the
conversation when you already know
[Am]I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made
[F]And that was the first day
(Chorus)
And [G]darling, [Am]it was [F]good
[G]Never [Am]looking [F]down
And [G]right there [Am]where we [F]stood
Was holy [C]ground
(Instrumental)
[C] [F]
(Verse 2)
[C]Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress
We had this big wide city all to ourselves
[F]We blocked the noise with
the sound of 'I need you'
And for the first time I had something to lose
[C]And I guess we fell apart in the usual way
And the story's got dust on every page
[Am]But sometimes I wonder how you think about it now
[F]And I see your face in every crowd
(Chorus)
'Cause [G]darling, [Am]it was [F]good
[G]Never [Am]looking [F]down
And [G]right there [Am]where we [F]stood
Was holy [C]ground
(Instrumental)
[C] [F]
(Bridge)
[C]Tonight I'm gonna dance
For all that we've been through
[F]But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you
[C]Tonight I'm gonna dance
Like you were in this room
[Am]But I don't wanna dance
[F]If I'm not dancing with you
(Chorus)
[Am]It was [F]good
[G]Never [Am]looking [F]down
And [G]right there [Am]where we [F]stood
Was holy [C]ground
(Instrumental)
[C] [F]
(Outro)
[C]Tonight I'm gonna dance
For all that we've been through
[F]But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you
[C]Tonight I'm gonna dance
Like you were in this room
[Am]But I don't wanna dance
[F]If I'm not dancing with [C]you
