INTRO

A long, long time ago, I can still remember
The day the music died


OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry

Left allemande the corner, dosado your girl
Allemande left and weave the ring
Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
Them good old boys drinking whiskey and rye
Singing this'll be the day that I die


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 6, corner progression

Heads promenade halfway around
Lead right, veer left somehow
Couples circulate, go two times and then
Bend the line and right & left thru
Star thru, pass thru and then
Swing your corner girl and all promenade my friend
The day the music died

TAG

This will be the day that I die

Same as Royal 325.
