A
Maybe I should go and live in Amsterdam
Asus2
In a side street near a big canal
Bm
Spend my evenings in the Van Gogh Museum
D
What a dream, Van Gogh Museum
A
Maybe its time to see Tangiers
Asus2
A different lifestyle, some different fears
Bm
Or maybe I should be in Edinburgh
D
In a kilt in Edinburgh
A Asus2 Bm D Dm
Doin' a modern dance, doin' a modern dance
A
Or maybe I should get a farm in southern France
Asus2
where the winds are wispy and the villagers dance
Bm
You and I we'd sleep beneath a moon
D
Moon in June and sleep till noon
A
And maybe you and I could fall in love
Asus2
Regain the spirit that we once had
Bm
You'd let me hold you and touch the night
D
That shines so bright, so bright with fright
A Asus2 Bm D Dm
Doin' a modern dance, doin' a modern dance
A
Shit, maybe I could go to Yucatan
Asus2
Where women are women, a man's a man
Bm
No one's confused, ever loses place
D
With their place in the human race
A
Maybe I'm not cut out for city life
Asus2
The smell of exhaust, the smell of strife
Bm
Maybe you don't wanna be a wife
D
It's not a life being a wife
A Asus2 Bm D Dm
Doin' a modern dance, doin' a modern dance
A
So maybe I should go to Tanganyik
Asus2
Where the rivers run, down mountains tall and steep
Bm
Or go to India to study chants
D
And lose romance do a mantra's dance
A
I need a guru, I need some law
Asus2
Explain to me the things we saw
Bm
Why it always comes to this
D
It's all downhill after the first kiss
A
Maybe I should move to Rotterdam
Asus2
Maybe move to Amsterdam
Bm
I should move to Ireland, Italy, Spain
D
Afghanistan where there is no rain
A
Or maybe I should just learn a modern dance
Asus2
Where roles are shifting the modern dance
Bm
You never touch you don't know who you're with
D Dm D
This week, this month, this time of year
D Dm
This week, this month, this time of year
A Asus2 Bm D Dm
Doin' a modern dance
A
You don't know who you're with modern dance
Asus2
I should move to Pakistan, go to Afghanistan
Bm
Dance, you don't know who you're with
D
Dance, you don't know who you're with
Dm
Modern dance
A Asus2
And maybe you don't wanna be a wife
Bm D Dm
It's not life being a wife
A Asus2 Bm D Dm
Doin' a modern dance
A
You never touch you don't know who you're with
Asus2
Dance, modern dance
Bm D Dm
The roles are shifting (dance)
A
You never touch you don't know who you're with
Asus2
Dance, modern dance
Bm
Naybe you don't wanna be a wife
D Dm
It's not a life being a wife
