Subject: Step In, Step Out by Weddings, Parties, Anything
Step In, Step Out
by Weddings, Parties, Anything
Words and Music by Michael Thomas
Transcribed by Dean Malone
Note: For those of you who aren't aware, Weddings are an Australian
folk/rock group
whose first album was released in 1987 (they've since made another 6 - all
big sellers in Australia). Probably their biggest claim to fame is that
they're reportedly U2's favourite group. This song is from "Difficult Loves"
Playing Notes: This is just a simple strum in 4/4. The only 'different
chord' is the
D/F# bass with the F# being played in the 4th string. Tempo is sort of
country-ish.
G D A D
In the morning when from slumber you awake
G D F#m A
Find me sleeping like a baby by your side
G D
Get up, get off to work
A D
'Cause there are cakes that must be baked
G D
But if there's things that I must do
A
I'd sooner let them slide
Chorus:
Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in
G D
It is a dance that is bizarre
A D
It is a dance that's wearing thin
Bm A Bm A
And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
A G D/F# A
Seems we find the time to shout
G D A D
And late at night when I come fumbling for my keys
G D F#m A
The house is dark and all is quiet
G D A D
Get into bed it is so hard for me to please
G D
You're barely hours away from work
A
And you're so tired
Chorus:
Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in
G D
It is a dance that is bizarre
A D
It is a dance that's wearing thin
Bm A Bm A
And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
A G D/F# A
Seems we find the time to shout
G D
Some people pray for rain
A D
Some people pray for holidays
G D F#m A
Some people pray for money without swelter
G D
But we just pray for two shifts
A D
At the same end of the day
G D A
And a life that is not quite so helter skelter
Chorus:
Bm A Bm A
And you step out, when I step in
G D
It is a dance that is bizarre
A D
It is a dance that's wearing thin
Bm A Bm A
And you step in, when I step out
G D
Though we can't find the time for talking
A G D/F# A
Seems we find the time to shout
G D/F# A
You and me, oh we've been living in different worlds
||: Bm A :|| Repeat to fade
End on Bm
