B E B
On a warm night in March on a dark disco floor
G#m
I danced up a storm like I’d never before
E F# B
Every step in the book and then some that weren’t listed
C#m G#m F#
For a song or two I felt nothing else existed
B E B
Now if a dream curled at your feet you’d take it home and name it
G#m
I’m struggling now to find something to blame it on
E F# B
Strobing effects or perhaps it was that dress
C#m G#m F#
But my eye was captured by a beautiful actress
B E B
Now the minutiae’s still my memory writ large
G#m
As she danced nearer me with her coy entourage
E F# B
She tugged at the scarf round her neck it came loose
C#m E B B
She flung it and hung it from the disc jockey’s booth
E F# G#m E
But before I continue one moments reprieve
E B
I grant you dear audience a chance to leave
E F# G#m E
For my tale never ends in that it never started
E F#
When the house lights came on I’d already departed
B E B
No not one word was spoken nor a glance exchanged
G#m
When the sun rose next morning the world hadn’t changed
E F# B
See we only touched elbows is the plain naked truth
C#m E B B
And I can’t even back up my story with proof
Bm E B
We only touched elbows, felt our bones clunk together
G#m
Then the moment was over in a falling feather
E F# B
An accident sure but it happened I’ll wrangle
C#m G#m G#m G#m F#
Our elbows did touch our arms at right angles
B E B
Now there’s naught the nosey observer could’ve guessed
G#m
But the rock and roll drummer inside of my chest
E F# B
Everyone’s seen her films and I’ll whisper her name
C#m E B
That we only touched elbows is not such a shame
E F# G#m E
For the world’s getting crowded and I can’t see a lapse
E B
It’s not about leaving spaces but filling the gaps
E F# G#m E
We’re all bumping and knocking strangers all the time
E F#
Sometimes we don’t notice, mostly we don’t mind
B E B
C# foot brushes your ankle on a peak hour bus
G#m
Someone’s hand on the small of your back as they pass
E F# B
C# shopkeepers fingers while handing you change
C#m G#m F#
Can lightly brush yours without feeling too strange
B E B
But why I felt so alive I can’t quite determine
G#m
There could be a word to explain it in German
E F# B
Some take others home waking up to regret it
C#m G#m
We only touched elbows and I’ll never forget it
F# B E B
E B G#m G#m
E F# B
C#m C#m G#m F#
B E B G#m G#m
E F# B C#m
G#m G#m
B E B
Now the innocent DJ still spins his black moons
G#m G#m
And keeps us all moving with his faithful tunes
E F# B
And the lights nod in synch, they’re mechanically powered
C#m E B
We only touched elbows and I still haven’t
