 Genesis
 					We Can't Dance
 Tabbed by Frederic Maquet.  f.maquet@ic.ac.uk
 This is a classic rock tune and I couldn't believe no one had tabbed it
 (although it is
 pretty simple)....This is by no means entirely correct, as the original
 has a synthesizer that
 adds a good bit of the punch, and the bass does a lot too.
 If some of the chords seem unusual, it's because I wanted it to sound as
 Bass-y as
 possible (to give it some crunch!).  You can always use the normal
 chords although
 it'll sound less "authentic".  Enjoy.

 	   Hot sun    Beating           Burning  wal-  around
 			  down		my feet   king
 
 
 C C G G		 F  G G
       Hot sun        beating down

       burning my feet just walking around.
 
 (Same thing:)
 
 Hot sun making me sweat
 'Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet

 -------
 C C G G		F  G G
 I can't dance, I can't talk.
 C C G G                        Bb    C
 The only thing about me is the way I walk.
 
 I can't dance, I can't sing
 I'm just standing here selling everything.
 
 Verse 2:
 --------
 
 Blue jeans sitting on the beach,
 her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach.
 
 She's got a body under that shirt,
 but all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
 
 'Cause, I can't dance, I can't talk.
 The only thing about me is the way I walk.
 No, I can't dance, I can't sing
 I'm just standing here selling.

     Bb			      F
 And checking everything is in place,
 	  C
 you never know who's looking on.
 
 Verse 3:
 --------
 
 Young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
 fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
 
 Thick smoke, see her smiling through.
 I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
 
 But I can't dance, I can't talk.
 The only thing about me is the way I walk.
 I can't dance, I can't sing
 I'm just standing here selling

 End:

 Play chorus lots of time with loads of scat vocals...while
 playing the "intro-riff"...
 
 and singing:
 
 "I won't dance,  please don't ask me..."
