1.         I was at a dance, when he caught my eye, 
 
                                G7      C
    standin' all alone lookin' sad and shy. 
 
                       - C7                     F
    We began  to dance          swayin' to and fro, 
 
          C              G            C
    and soon I knew I'd never let him go.

                                         C
                       but soon it ended up a big romance,
