Born To Act

F                                       Bb  F 
There's A girl on the floor, she dances way out 
Dm                                Bb F 
She's a snub nose beauty, she's a no doubt 
Bb                           Eb   Bb             
But if I talk to her, I even Look hard 
F                               C 
She'll be out of this place and she'll be out of my life. 


F                              Bb   F 
So we busted a move we got the hell out

We got stories to tell, we got our whole life 
Bb                                   Eb  Bb      
We drink coffee till late because we jet lagged 
F                                        
We put a fortune into the greatest

Music machine in the land  

                 A                                 Dm    
Play a wonderful song to me and it's better than a date 
                        A 
Play the tune where the girl sings high 
               Eb 
She's my lover surrogate 
                    Ab 
And the waitress is rolling by, shining high 
              Eb 
Smiling for a tip 
                    C 
Every boy dreams of it 


F                                    Bb   F                      
So the girl dances in, she takes the next booth 
Dm                                    Bb  F 
I break the rule of my life, I make a big move 
Bb                            Eb   Bb    
Cos my accent is funny, got a head start

If you wannt make good, you got to use what you got 

F                                    Bb  F 
We go with her friends and there's a big crowd 
Dm                                         Bb    F 
There's a girl who can't stand up till she falls down 
Bb                                          Eb  Bb 
There's a pressure that's building and it's too late  
F                              C                         
Cos she leaves in the morning, there's a flight 
              Dm 
It's a family affair 

                 A                                 Dm

So we met a month later, she had long hair 
Dm                                 Bb   F 
She was driving the bus I paid the full fare 
Bb                                Eb   Bb 
It was easy to talk and she drove real fast 
F                                C       
And she told me the story of her dirty old past 

F                                      Bb  F 
All the boys she had loved and all the bad sex 
Dm                                    Bb  F 
All the things she must learn and all her prospects 
Bb                                   Eb  Bb 
I was there for the ride and for the old soul 
F                           C 
BUt we couldn't go further, no we couldn't go 
F                           C 
But we couldn't go further, no we couldn't go 
F                          C                         F 
But we couldn't go further cos the story was already told.
