The Dance Garth Brooks
transcription by Greg Vaughn
Here's the song that, in my opinion, launched a superstar
Keyboard intro (I like how it sounds on guitar)
Em (7th fret) C D
----------------------3-5-7-3------------------------------ ---------8------------------------------3------------------ ----9-10---10-9-----0---------------0-2---2-0-2-0---------- ---9-------------------------------0----------------------- --7---------------3---------------------------------------- -7---------------------------------------------------------
Guitar intro
[G] [C/G] [G] [C/G] [G] [D/G] [C/G] [G]
----------------------------------------------------------------- ----0---0---1-----------0---0---1---------0----3---1-------0----- --0---0---0---0-------0---0---0---0-----0---0----0---0----------- --------0---2---------------0---2--------------4---2-------0----- ----2-------------------2-----------------2---------------------- -3-------------------3-----------------3-------------------3-----
1: Looking [G]bac[C/G]k [G]on[C/G] the m[C]emory of
2: Holding you I held everything
1: The d[D]ance we shared 'neath the [G]stars above[D]
2: For a moment wasn't I a king
1: For a m[G]ome[C/G]nt [G] all [C/G]the w[C]orld was right
2: If I'd only known how the king would fall
1: How could [D]I have known that you'd e[Em]ver say good[D]bye
2: Then, who's to say you know I might have changed it all
CHORUS
And n[C]ow I'm glad I didn't [D]know
The way it all would [Bm7]end
The way it all would [C]go[D]
% C D
%Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the [Bm7]pain
C D G(1st repeat intro lick 2nd repeat from %)
But I'd have had to miss the dance
Keyboard ending 1
Em (7th fret) C D

Keyboards continue through arpeggios here, but I play the following guitar
chords
Em/C/Dsus D/Em7(add 4th)/ repeat and fade (slash separates measures)
NOTES:
I generally fingerpick the verses with a timtrtmi. It�s not exactly
what�s on the CD, but it's close. If anyone has something better,
I'd be happy to hear about it.
Bm7 is played x24232
Em7(add4) is played 002030
It helps to play the G with your middle, ring, and pinky fingers
Just slide 2 frets up the neck to get the D/G chord in the guitar intro
Listen to the song to get the rhythm
The �G C/G G C/G� in the verses are played like the guitar intro
Thanks to Dana C for her suggestion to play the
first phrase of the keyboard intro and outro up on the 7th fret.
