B               E       B
You held me up  held me down
E       B              E          B
Made me crazy then you brought me around
E       B        E      B
Were my darkness and my light
            F#        C#7    F# 
You were my blindness and my site
        B       E      B
Were my shelter and my storm
E       B             E       B
Made my cold then you made me warm
E           B     E      B
You were my fever and my cure
E       B             F#      B
Made me doubt and you made me sure
F#                    B
One step forward  and two step back
E               B
Nobody gets too far like that
F#                    G#m
One step  forward and two steps back
E                      F#             B  E   B  E
This kind of dance can never last 
E           B    E      B
You were my hope and my fear
E           B        E      B
You were my laughter and my tear
E       B       E      B 
Were my destiny and my faith
        F#             C#7     F#     
Kept me moving and you made me wait
        B        E      B
Were my weakness and my power
E            B     E      B
You were the thorn in the flower
E             B         E        B
You were  my  sunshine and  the rain
                      F#             B
Made me  feel so good brough so much pain
F#                    B
One step forward  and two step back
E               B
Nobody gets too far like that
F#                    G#m
One step  forward and two steps back
E                      F#             B  E   B  E
This kind of dance can never last 


SOLO

       G#m                         B
And we never really meant for each other
              F#       B
We were never meant to last
       G#m                  B
In the years that we danced together
                          F#        B
Each step forward we took two steps back
                          F#        B
Each step forward we took two steps back
F#                    B
One step forward  and two step back
E               B
Nobody gets too far like that
F#                    G#m
One step  forward and two steps back
E                      F#             
This kind of dance can never last 
F#                    B
One step forward  and two step back
E               B
Nobody gets too far like that
F#                    G#m
One step  forward and two steps back
E                      F#             B  E   B  E  B
This kind of dance can never last
