For A Dancer
For A Dancer - JACKSON BROWNE From the 1974 Альбом: Late For The Sky Sumbitted by D. Weil
The song is mainly played on a piano, but heres the guitar chords anyway. Pretty straight foreward, no tricky stuff and all basic open position chords. Just watch for the Am to C7 switch. Enjoy!

C F
Keep a fire burning in your eye C F
Pay attention to the open sky C F C G
You never know what will be coming down
C F
I don't remember losing track of you C F
You were always dancing in and out of view C F C G
I must've thought you'd always be around Am F C
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
G
Now you're nowhere to be found
C F C G
C F
I don't know what happens when people die C F
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try (F) C F
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
C G
That I can't sing - I can't help listening C F
And I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round C F
Crying as they ease you down C F C
'Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing G Am
Dancing our sorrow away F
Right on dancing
C G No matter what fate chooses to play
C
There's nothing you can do about it anyway
F C
Just do the steps that you've been shown
F C G
By everyone you've ever known
Am C7
Until the dance becomes your very own F G
No matter how close to yours Am F
Another's steps have grown
C G
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone
C F C G
Keep a fire for the human race Let your prayers go drifting into space You never know what will be coming down Perhaps a better world is drawing near And just as easily it could all disappear Along with whatever meaning you might have found
Am F C
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
The world keeps turning around and around
G C
Go on and make a joyful sound
F C
Into a dancer you have grown
F C G
From a seed somebody else has thrown Am C7 F
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own F G Am
And somewhere between the time you arrive
F
And the time you go
C G
May lie the reason you were alive
But you'll never know
C F C G C G C
