No Kinda Dancer Chords & Lyrics - Robert Earl Keen Jr

Intro: [D] [Bm] [G] [A] , [D] [Bm] [G] [A] [G] [D]

[D]The first of the month [Bm]Brings back the notion

[G]Of a big round white dance hall and a cool summer [A]night

[D]Red cherry faces [Bm]set black shoes in motion

[G]To the oom pa pa rhythm of a German [A]delight

[CHORUS]

[Bm]And I tried hard to tell you [A]I was no kinda dancer

[Bm]'Took my hand to [G]prove I was wrong

[D]You guided me gently [Bm]Though I thought I could never

[G]We were dancing [A]together at the [G]end of the [D]song

A taught little bald man
Like a German war hero
With buxom matrons to a quick John Paul Jones
Drapes of crepe paper
A ball made of mirror
Cast shiny reflections on a brass slide trombone

[CHORUS]

A man was still dancing
With his phantom partner
Though the band had quit playing
At the evening's end
And it made me feel lucky that I had a partner
to teach me the dance steps
And come back again
