Chords Chorus: Am G Am | C D E | Am C G D | Am G Am

When She sanced on the water, and the wind was Her horn,
The Lady laughed and ev'ry thing was born.
And when She lit the sun and the light gave Him birth,
The Lord of the Dance first appeared on the Earth!

[Chorus]:
Dance, dance, wherever you may be.
"I am the Lord of the Dance", said he.
"I live in you, if you live in me,
For I'll lead you all in the Dance", said he!

I dance in the Circle when the flames leap up high.
I dance in the fire and I never, ever die.
I dance in the waves of the bright summer sea,
For I am the Lord of the waves mystery.

[Chorus]

I sleep in the kernal, and I dance in the rain.
I dance in the wind, and through the waving grain.
And when you cut me down, I care nothing for the pain.
In the Spring I'm the Lord of the Dance once again!

[Chorus]

I dance at the Sabbat when you dance out the spell.
I dance and sing that every one be well.
And when the dancings over, do not think that I'm gone.
To live is to dance, so I dance on and on!

[Chorus]

The horn of the Lady casts it's spell across the plain.
The birds took the notes and gave them back again.
'Till the sound of Her music was a song across the sky,
And to that song there is one reply!

[Chorus]

The moon in her phases and the tides of the sea,
The movement of the Earth and the seasons that will be,
Are the rhythm for the dancing and a promise through the years,
That the dance goes on through our joy and tears.

[Chorus]

They danced in the darkness and they danced in the night.
They dance on the Earth and everything was light.
They danced out the darkness and they danced in the dawn,
And the day of that dancing still goes on!

[Chorus]

I gaze on the Heavens and I gaze on the Earth.
And I feel the pain of dying and rebirth.
And I lift my head in gladness and in praise of the day.
Of the dance of the Lord and the Lady gay.

[Chorus]

We dance ever slower as the leaves fall and spin.
And the sound of Her horn is the wailing of the wind.
The call of the Hunter as He rides 'cross the plain.
While the Lady sleeps 'til the Spring comes again!

[Chorus]

The sun is in the Southlands and the winds they will chill.
And the sound of Her horn is a-fading on the hill.
The herd stands in stillness as we move in a trance.
But we hold on fast to our faith in the Dance.

[Chorus]

The sun is in the Southlands and the days lengthen fast.
And soon we will sing for the Winter that is past.
But now light the candles and rejoice as they burn.
We dance the dance of the sun's return!

[Chorus]

The snow is slowly melting and the clouds bring the rain.
The Lady wakes, for the Spring comes again.
We dance in the meadows and we dance in the groves.
And rejoice in the Lord's and Lady's love!

[Chorus]
