Verse:
        Em                D
When I passed you in the doorway
          C                     G
Well, you took me with a glance
Em                         D
  I should have took that last bus home
      C                     G
But I asked you for a dance


       Em                  D
Now we go steady to the pictures
    C                         G
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
Em                   D
  And my father he's going crazy
   C                           G
He says I'm living in a trance

Chorus:
        D              Em
But I'm dancing in the moonlight
D                       C
  It's caught me in its spotlight
     G
It's alright, alright
               Em
Dancing in the moonlight
D              C                G (nc)
  On this long hot summer night

Verse:
     Em                      D
It's three o'clock in the morning
        C                G
And I'm on the streets again
Em                    D
  I disobeyed another warning
  C                      G
I should have been in by ten


      Em                   D
Now I won't get out until Sunday
          C                     G
I'll have to say I stayed with friends
Em                         D
Oh, but it's a habit worth forming
      C                        G
If it means to justify the end

Chorus:
D              Em
Dancing in the moonlight
D                       C
  It's caught me in its spotlight
     G
It's alright, alright
               Em
Dancing in the moonlight
D              C                G (nc)
  On this long hot summer night
