I WON’T DANCE
W: Oscar Hammerstein, Otto Harbach
M: Jerome Kern
Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald
Key: C
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
I won't dance, don't ask me
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
I won't dance, don't ask me
7 7 7 -7 5 -5 6
I won't dance, Ma-dame, with you
6 7 -6 6 5 -5 5
My heart won't let my feet do
6 5 -5 5
things they should do
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
You know what? You're love-ly
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
And so what? I’m love-ly
7 7 7 -7 5 -5 6
But, oh, what you do to me
6 7 -6 6 5 -5
I'm like an o-cean wave
5 6 5 -5 5
that's bumped on the shore
6 7 -6 6 5 -5 5 6 5 -5 5
I feel so ab-so-lute-ly stumped on the floor
5 -5* -6 8 -7* 7*
When you dance, you're charm-ing
-5* -6 -6* 7
and you're gen-tle
3* -3* 4* -6 -5* 4* 3* -3* -4 -4
'spec-ially when you do the Con-ti-nen-tal
-4 -5* -6* -8 -7 -6* 5* -5* 6 6
But this feel-ing is-n't pure-ly men-tal
6 7 -6 6 6 6 -8 -7 6 6
For, heav-en rest us, I’m not as-bes-tos
-5 6 -6
And that's why
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
I won't dance, why should I?
7 7 7 -7 5 -5
I won't dance, how could I?
7 7 7 -7 5 -5 6
I won't dance, mer-ci beau-coup
6 7 -6 6 5 -5 5 6 5 -5 5
I know that mu-sic leads the way to ro-mance,
6 7 -6 6 7 -7 8 10 9 -9 9
So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance
REPEAT
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
