Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: IRISH WALTZ (Charlie Landsborough)
Is it this one perhaps?

IRISH WALTZ
ASB Charlie Landsborough

[D}I'm slow on my feet, and lacking in grace,
[G]No one could ever, look [D] more out of place
And [G]me on the [A]dance floor, with [D] egg on my [G] face
[D]Dancing an [A] Irish [D] waltz,

I looked up and couldn't, believe what I saw,
The kind of face, I 'd only dreamed of before,
So I swallowed my pride, and I took to the floor,
As the band played an Irish waltz

Chorus
[D] One, two, [G] three, went my heart
And we [A] smiled as we swayed, and the [D] band sweetly played,
My [G] legs felt like [A] lead, there were [D] stars in my [G] head,
[D] When we danced an [A] Irish [D] waltz,

I was clumsy and awkward, and so ill at ease,
Blood rushed to my head, and the strength left my knees,
But the moment that's gold, among my memories,
Is when we dance an Irish waltz, .... Chorus

Oh we've been together, for years since that night,
My two left feet, still can' quite get it right,
Our children look on, and laugh with delight
When we dance an Irish waltz, .... Chorus x 2
