(ver. 1)
June Tabor
[Intro]

D  C  G  D  G  Em  C  G   x2
G  Em  C  D  G  Em  C  G  x2
D  C  G  D  G  Em  C  G   x2

[Verse]
         D            Em         D
Saturday night at the Adam Smith Hall
    C           D           C              D
The couples all move to the dance master's call
  G                D            Em         D
Tonight they've no problems, no worries at all
    C            D           G     D/F#
The dancing, the dancing's tonight

[Chorus]
    Bm                      C
And oh, Monday morning, she comes round too soon
    Bm                          C
The sound of the flax mill, the beat of the loom
  Bm                         C        D
Tonight the band's playing a romantic tune
         C            D           G      D/F#
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
         C            D           G      D/F#  Em  D  C  D  G
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight

[Verse]
               D             Em           D
Her partner is perfect, he's light on his feet
    C           D             C               D
The footwork is faultless, perhaps they might meet
G         D           Em          D
Up by the old kirk or down Hunter Street
C            D         G     D/F#
Walking home under the stars

[Chorus]
    Bm                      C
And oh, Monday morning, she comes round too soon
    Bm                          C
The sound of the flax mill, the beat of the loom
  Bm                         C        D
Tonight the band's playing a romantic tune
         C            D           G      D/F#
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
         C            D           G      D/F#  Em  D  C  D  G
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight

[Verse]
             D           Em         D
Walking back late by Kirkcaldy's seawall
    C            D        C         D
The sea looks so big, the sky is so tall
    G           D            Em        D
The fate of two people can't matter at all
       C        D             G     D/F#
Just a waltz in three-quarter time

[Chorus]
    Bm                      C
And oh, Monday morning, she comes round too soon
    Bm                          C
The sound of the flax mill, the beat of the loom
  Bm                         C        D
Tonight the band's playing a romantic tune
         C            D           G      D/F#
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
         C            D           G
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight

[Instrumental]
G  D/F#  Em  D  C  D  C  D
G  D/F#  Em  D  C  D  G  D/F#
Bm    C    Bm    C    Bm    C  D
C  D  G  D  C  D  G

[Verse]
         D            Em         D
Saturday night at the Adam Smith Hall
    C           D           C              D
The couples all move to the dance master's call
  G                D            Em         D
Tonight they've no problems, no worries at all
    C            D           G     D/F#
The dancing, the dancing's tonight

[Chorus]
    Bm                      C
And oh, Monday morning, she comes round too soon
    Bm                          C
The sound of the flax mill, the beat of the loom
      Bm                         C        D
But tonight the band's playing a romantic tune
         C            D           G      D/F#
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
         C            D           G      D/F#
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
         C            D           G      D/F#  Em  D  C  D  G
Aye, the dancing, the dancing's tonight
