[Intro] G  C  G  C  G  D  C  G 

                   C             D  
Lookin back on the memory of the dance we shared
           G            D
'Neath the stars above
      G              C                         D
For a moment all the world was right how could I have known
            Em            D
That you'd  ever say good bye

chorus:     C                      D                         
        And now, I'm glad I didn't know
                             Bm
        The way it all would end
                             C    D
        The way it all would go
            C                         D                              
        Our lives, are better left to chance
                                Bm 
        I could have missed the pain
                            C    D   G
        But I'd had have to miss the dance
        G          C                D
Holding you I held everything for a moment
       G            D
Wasn't I the king?
       G                  C
If I'd only known how the king would fall
    D
Hey who's to say
            Em
You know, I might have changed it all

chorus:     C                      D                         
        And now, I'm glad I didn't know
                             Bm
        The way it all would end
                             C    D
        The way it all would go
            C                         D                              
        Our lives, are better left to chance
                                Bm 
        I could have missed the pain
                            C    D   G
        But I'd had have to miss the dance
Outro:         C                         D
        Yes my life, it's better left to chance
                                     Bm
        I could have have missed the pain
                            C    D   G
        But I'd had have to miss the dance
