two columns

INTRO

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore


OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far

Allemande, weave
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
Swing, promenade
I'll take you just the way you are

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru 4
Swing thru, boys run
Tag the line, cloverleaf
Centers square thru 3
Swing, promenade
*Although I might not seem to care

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I'll take you just the way you are

*The way that I believe in you

*I want you just the way you are

MIDDLE BREAK   

(64 beat sax solo)

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart

Allemande, weave
I could not love you any better
Swing, promenade
I love you just the way you are
