Melanie - Ballerina
CAPO: 2nd Fret

You didn't grow up to be a ballerina
But you do a great song and dance
G E A D G D
G
You didn't grow up to be a ballerina
C G
But you do a great song and dance
Mamma used to rock you with a concertina
A D
To the tune of a rock 'n' roll band
G G7
You were such a little lady, a pretty little baby
C A A7
Had the look that could undo a full grown man
G E7
You didn't grow up to be a ballerina
A D G D
But you do a great song and dance
G
You never went further than that first tondu
C G
But your smile sure made 'em rave
I'll bet you made your mom and daddy proud of you
A D
When that float drove by and you waved
G G7
You were everybody's dream, a cutie beauty queen
C A A7
Destined for a life of romance
G E7
You didn't grow up to be a ballerina
A D G
But you do a great song and dance
E7
Put on your tutu
A D G
Do a great song and dance

Oh yes, you do do

When it was hot outside, you always could stay cool
