Intro

[Bm](Bet[D]wee[G]n t[A]he Bm and D he hits a C# on the A string)

[Bm]Backstage with the modern dancers
[D]She was stretching her arms[G]
[A]configuring her body[Bm]
while they were brea[D]thing, they were shouting[G]
[A]she was concentrating on her breathing[Bm]
and didn't seem to mind [D]
as i[G] sat there on the couch
[A]and tuned my guitar [Bm]
and played a few cho[D]rds[G]
[A]like roses growing their thorns

getting ready to perfor[Bm]m
[D]with bare feet and painted f[G]aces
[A]they took their places[Bm]
on shiv[D]ering legs beneath colourful go[G]wns

[A] [D]

[A]oooh ooooh[D]
[D] [A]
[na] [na] [na] [na]
[A]ooooh oooh[Bm]

[Bm]and out there on the wooden floors[D][G]
[A]the sweat form their pores[Bm]
I'm writing a list[D][G]
[A]of songs I can sing by myself[Bm]
[Bm]backstage with the modern dancers
[D]who feel it, [G]li[A]ke i feel it
[Bm]like i feel it feel if feel it
[Bm]backstage with the modern dancers
getting read[D]y to go on[G]
[A]she showed me her spin[Bm]
[D]with a beauty lit from wit[G]hin[A]
[Bm]and all of these thing[D]s
[G]i don't think they should [A]be released
