[Verse]
F
Oh play me a blues song and fade down the light
    C        F             Bb       F
I'm sad as a proud man can be sad tonight
F
Just let me dream on, oh just let me sway
          C        F            Bb         F
While the sweet violins and the saxophones play

[Bridge]
    C               C/Bb         Gm          C
And Miss, you don't know me, but can't we pretend
        Bb                            C
That we care for each other, till the band reach the end

[Chorus]
F            Bb
One step for aching
F             Bb
Two steps for breaking
Dm             G
Waltzing's for dreamers
    C         F
And losers in love

F            Bb
One step for sighing and
F             Bb
Two steps for crying
Dm             G
Waltzing's for dreamers
    C         F
And losers in love

[Solo]
Dm G C F F

[Verse]
         F
Now they say love's for gamblers, the pendulum swings
  C           F          Bb        F
I bet hard on love and I lost everything
   F
So don't send me home now, put a shot in my arm
          C             F                  Bb           F
And we'll drink out old memories and we'll drink in the dawn

[Bridge]
    C       C/Bb              Gm            C
And Mr. Bandleader, won't you play one more time
         Bb                         C
For I've good folding money in this pocket of mine.

[Chorus]
    F            Bb
Oh, one step for aching
F             Bb
Two steps for breaking
Dm             G
Waltzing's for dreamers
    C         F
And losers in love

F            Bb
One step for sighing and
F             Bb
Two steps for crying

Waltzing's for dreamers

And losers in love
