[Verse]
D                                                          G
thinking back to my childhood, to the simpler days of my youth
A                                                             D
its hard to find a happier time then when I was dancing with you
D                                                                           G
i remember those Newfoundland waltz’s, with the crowd all three fouring in twos
A                                                                      D
from left to right to the tiny red light, we danced the whole night through

[Chorus]
G                        A       D                       G
dance with me and we‘ll glide along just like we used to do
G                 D              A
with music and friends we will go ‘round again
G               A         D
i love keeping time with you

[Verse]
D                                                                             G
when the St.John’s waltz started playing, I don’t think my feet touched the floor
A                                                                                   D
then you swung me ’round from the squid jigging ground, to the northern lights of labrador
D                                                                    G
whenever I hear those songs playing, I think of the joy that they brought
A                                                    D
wave over wave on a grey foggy day, sweet forget me not


[Chorus]
G                        A       D                       G
dance with me and we‘ll glide along just like we used to do
G                 D              A
with music and friends we will go ‘round again
G               A         D
i love keeping time with you

G                        A       D                       G
dance with me and we‘ll glide along just like we used to do
G                 D              A
with music and friends we will go ‘round again
G               A         D
i love keeping time with you
G                    A        D
oh, I love keeping time with you
