I Don't Dance With Strangers Recorded by Becky Hobbs Written by Jerry Hawkins and Becky Hobbs
G Am The band is playing that old melody D7 E7 Am D7 Oh it brings back summer nights and good ole Texas memories G Am And I came here to chase away my blues D7 E7 Am D7 Oh the last thing I expected was to meet someone like you
G G7 C But I don’t dance with strangers it’s a dangerous thing to do D7 C D7 I just came here to hear the band and have myself a drink or two G G7 C But you’re tall dark and lonesome and it’s driving me insane Dm D7 G But I don’t dance with strangers so honey what’s your name
Am Now listen I ain’t looking for romance D7 E7 Am D7 Oh the last thing that my heart needs now is it to take another chance G Am But what’s the harm in once around the floor D7 E7 Am D7 Ooo oh and maybe later on we won’t be strangers anymore
Repeat #2
G7 C And you’re tall dark and lonesome and it’s driving me insane Dm D7 G Yeah but I don’t dance with strangers so honey what’s your name C Dm D7 G But I don’t dance with strangers so honey what’s your name.
