Would You Like To Learn To Dance Cifras

Disagreement with docweasel! This ↑ isn't quite right either... I can't be bothered with reformatting my take on it to conform with the rules so I'm posting it here as a comment. Not claiming everything's 'correct', but it seems to work, more or less. I think you'll find it's closer to Steve Goodman's original, though I ain't claiming it's perfect. Besides anything else, it's for just one guitar and I've left out a lot of ornamentation. I'm never in favour of just copying the original anyway, so take it as a starting point! NOTES: (C↓) is just one note - C, 5th string, 3rd fret; you might want to arpeggiate a C chord at the end of the song. Why not? In case it isn't obvious, (½X) is half a bar of the specified chord. (G*) in the first line of verse 1 (copy to other verses if you like) is played like this: treble: c b g d (just pull off for c to b) bass: G - - - 2nd line for Fm just pluck 6th & 3rd strings (low E and G) stopped on the first fret in unison, then lift off & repeat for Em : treble: g#- g - bass: F - E - and (also 2nd line) Am (2nd string, 1st fret and 5th string open) to G (2nd string open, 6th string 3rd fret) treble: c - b - bass: A - G - so 2nd line is: g#-↓g -↑c -↓b F -↓E -↑A -↓G Other than that... /x means with that note in the treble, /X means with that note in the bass (X7M) is the major 7th chord; (F6v) is F6 played as a D chord shape on the 5th fret (xx0565) Do note that the 6th line goes (Bb) (F) (C) in the 1st verse but (Bb) (F) (G) in the 2nd & 3rd verses ... and just do your own thing anyway! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Would You Like To Learn To Dance? capo 0, 4/4 (but vary the tempo as the mood takes you) Would you (C↓) like to learn to dance?(G*)–– (½Fm) (½Em) Well I can (½Am) show you that (½G) (F) Got a book here with (G) all you need to know(C7M)–(C7M) (E) We can draw the Arthur (E) Murray patterns (½Am/A) Right here (½Am/G) on the (F7) floor (Bb) And all you (F) have to do is (C) follow (C) (E) And then we'll (E) dance around the (Am) room a while (Am) You can (F) lead now if you (G) want to, I don't (C7M) mind (C7M) (E) (E) Nothing I wouldn't do (½Am/A) –– to (½Am/G) see a (F7) smile Go (Bb) dancing 'cross your (F) face in perfect (Asus4) time (A) (Bb) Dancing 'cross your (F) face in perfect (C) time (C) Would you (C) like to learn to (G) sing?

This one is right. I don't know what the other one is trying to do, or why it has such a high rating, but this is how it's played. The Fm in the first line is genius btw, Steve Goodman was an amazing, under appreciated talent who died much too young. Good work, nicely done.
