Capo 2
[D]Now I really should have known that you'd show up [G]sooner or later
Knowin' [D]every Friday night they always [G]have your favorite band
Though [Em]someone new is with you at our [A]table
[Em]Would it be too much for me to [A]ask to ask you n[D]ot to dance[G][A]
Chorus:
Not [D]tonight, not un[D/F#]til
My heart's [G]had some time to heal
Not right [Em]now, til I'm gone
I won't [A]be here very long
And when I [D]leave, you can [D/F#]stay
And just [G]dance the night away
But 'til [Em]then, do you think
That there's a [A]chance
I could ask you not to [D]dance
I saw you slip the leader of the band a piece of paper
I knew what song they'd play before he took it from your hand
I wonderin' if you'd do me one last favor
And if the answer's no I'll understand, could I ask you not to dance
Chorus
Chorus (goes up ½ step to D#)
