Lord of the Dance Lyrics & Tabs by The Irish Rovers
Lord of the Dance
guitar chords lyrics
I danced on the morning when the world began,
I danced in the moon and the stars and the Sun,
I came out of Heaven and I danced on the Earth,
In Bethlehem I had my birth.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
I danced for the scribes and the Pharisees,
they would not dance and they wouldn't follow me.
I danced for the fishermen James and John,
They came with me and the dance went on.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
I danced on a Sabbath and I cured the lame,
the holy people thought it was a shame
They cut me, they stripped me, and they hung me high
and left me there on a cross to die
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black,
it's hard to dance with the Devil on your back.
They buried my body, but I'd gone...
I am the dance and I still go on.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
Well they cut me down but I lept up high,
I am the light that will never, never die.
I live in you and you live in me...
I am the lord of the dance, said he.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
Dance, dance, wherever you may be,
I am the lord of the dance, said he,
And I lead you all wherever you may be...
And I lead you all in the dance, said he.
