[Verse 1]
 G                  C
looking back on the memory of
       D                        G
The dance we share beneath the stars above
       G              C
For a moment all the world was right
            D                      C           D
How could I have known that you'd ever say good bye
 
[Refrain 1]
    C                    D
And now I'm glad I didnt know
                    Bm
The way it all will end
                    C D
The way it all will go
 C                             D
Our lives are better left to chance
                      Bm
I could have miss the pain
                     C D      G         Em  C
But I'd have had to miss the dance, the dance
   D                     G          Em7  C
I would have missed the dance, the dance
   D
I would have missed the dance
 
[Verse 2]
        A            D
Holding you, I held everything
      E                  A
For a moment, oh, wasn't I a king
                              D
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
             E
Hey who's to say, you know
    D                   E
I might have changed it all
 
[Refrain 2]
    D                     E
And now I'm glad I didn't know

                     D E
The way it all would go
   D                          E
Our lives are better left to chance

I could have missed the pain
                     D E      A          F#m D

The way it all would end
                     D E

Said I would have missed the dance
              Looking back on the memory of
The dance we'd shared underneath the star above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you would ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance

Holding you, I held everything
For a moment, oh, wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
They used to say, you know, I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance, the dance
I would have missed the dance

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes, our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance
Oh, the dance

Sing, the dance
I said I would have missed the dance, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance, the dance, dance
Said I would have missed the dance
Oh, the dance
Said I would have missed the dance
