two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Pretend you're happy when you're blue
It isn't very hard to do
And you'll find happiness without an end
Whenever you pretend

Four ladies chain across you know
Chain her right back and promenade
The little things you haven't got
Could be a lot, if you pretend


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 8, corner progression

Heads square thru four hands you go
Around your corner dosado
Swing thru, now the boys run
Bend the line, right & left thru
Flutter wheel across you go
Slide thru, your corner swing, promenade
The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend
So why don't you pretend?


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Remember anyone can dream
And nothing's bad as it may seem

Four men star right one time
Left allemande and weave that ring
Pretend you're happy when your blue
Swing and promenade her too
The little things you haven't got
Could be a lot, if you pretend


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
And if you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine, it can be yours my friend
So why don't you pretend

Four ladies chain across you know
Chain her right back and promenade
The little things you haven't got
Could be a lot, if you pretend


TAG

Swing her
The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend
So why don't you pretend?
