From the record "By Gloucester docks I sat down and wept – A Love Story"
(1987, reissued 2013).
The song originally appeared as "Dancing under the rose" on "Under the rose"
by The Albion Band (1984).
That version has other verses but the same chorus.
[Intro]
D Dmaj7 D6 A
D Dmaj7 D6 A
D D G G D A
[Verse 1]
D A D
You’ve had your fears and tried acting sane
A G D
And you know that it’s wrong yet you come back again
A D A D
But what can you do when you’re drinking champagne
D G A
And you’re dancing under the rose
[Verse 2]
D A D
The jigs and polkas swirl round the room
A G D
Will the squeezebox and drum [drone?] fade away all too soon
A D A D
Will a thousand kazoos play a march out of tune
D G A
When you’re dancing under the rose
[Chorus]
G D D/E D/F# G
And it’s so hard to know if you’re bound for a fall
G/F# Em A
But better to have tripped than never danced at all
G F#m D A/C#
So in chancing and advancing
G/B A D
You’ll be soon dancing under the rose
D D G G D A
[Verse 3]
D A D
So take your partner and spin in this space
A G D
You might fall on your back, you might fall on your face
A D A D
If you fall in his arms it will fall into place
D G A
When you’re dancing under the rose
[Verse 4]
