Dirty Dancing Chords

[Verse]
Cmaj
The love of my life when I was a kid
Am
Came by my house this morning
           Dm
We used to dance the afternoons away with Kylie
G                             E
Back when the nineties were dawning
 
Cmaj
The love of my life when I was a kid
         Am
Used to write me the sweetest letters
    Dm                                        G
And one night he shot a couple of birds in a pool
                    E
Thought it was to impress me
 
           Cmaj
He was my older brother's friend and had a light around him
            Am
That would chase off any winter
       Dm                                            G
He had no father and his mother seemed younger than ours
             E
And he was a dancer
 
           Cmaj
He had the keys to a place where we could practice
   Am
It felt almost like Dirty Dancing
 Dm                                       G
Minus the United States and instead of a resort
                        E
It was the Folkets Hus basement
 
A F#m D E
Aaahhh
 
          Cmaj
Well then I became a singer and he became a chimney sweep
       Am
And a hunter and a father of two so far
         Dm
I got a grand piano and a house with a chimney
          G                      E
And this morning he came by to sweep it
 
       Cmaj
And we sat on the steps to the house listening
        Am
To the birds of the coming spring singing
            Dm
He said 'get up on the roof and put up a net
             G                     E
Or they will build a nest in your chimney
 
    Cmaj                                  Am
And when I touched his sweepers arm with my piano fingers
          Dm
He said "watch Frida, your hands will get dirty"
G                           E
   And I felt like I had a fever
 
    Cmaj
The dark powers, the mayflowers
     Am
The roads on which we travel
      Dm
How he told me no and how my young heart broke
          G                 E
And how a cold new world unravelled
 
        Cmaj
I guess you do the dirty now and I do the dancing
     Am
And once we were Baby and Johnny
      Dm
In a small boring town where the winters were long
         G                        E
And our real names were Frida and Jimmy
 
A F#m D E
Aaahhh
