Verse 1
Am
Her breath began to speak
As she stood right in front of me
The colour of her eyes
Were the colour of insanity
Crushed beneath her wave
Like a ship, I could not reach the shore
Am                            E
We're all just dancers on the Devil's Dance Floor

Chorus
Am                          C             G
Well swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Am                            C           E 
Swing a little more, a little more next to me
Am                          C             G 
Swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Am                          C       G    Am 
Swing a little more, on the Devil's Dance Floor

Verse 2
Am
Pressed against her face
I could feel her insecurity
Her mother'd been a drunk
And her father was obscurity
But nothin' ever came
Am                                 E
So pull yourself together girl and have a little fun

Verse 3
Am
Well she took me by the hand
I could see she was a fiery one
Her legs ran all the way
Up to Heaven and past Avalon
Tell me somethin' girl, what it is you have in store
Am                               E
She said come with me now on the Devil's Dance Floor

Chorus

Am                          C       E     Am 
Swing a little more, on the Devil's Dance Floor

Verse 4
Am
The apple now is sweet
Oh much sweeter than it ought to be
Another little bite
I don't think there is much hope for me
The sweat beneath her brow
Travels all the way
An' headin' south
Am                                        E
This bleedin' hearts cryin' cause there's no way out

Chorus 2X
Am                          C          E        Am 
Swing a little more, on the Devil's    Dance    Floor!
