two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*Turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those sad songs

Men star by the right and go
Find the corner, allemande left and you weave the ring
They reach into your room, oh-o-o-oh
You swing and you promenade in time
When all hope is gone
You know a sad song saves our love


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads turn thru and go (you're facing out)
Separate go round one and you make a line
Move into the middle and you come on back
Pass the ocean here, girls run right and then
Tag the line all the way, face in
Square thru this way, count to 3 hands and go
Swing that corner girl and you promenade
**Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know


MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER   

Circle left
*Sad songs they say, sad songs they say
Allemande left and promenade
Sad songs they say, sad songs they say
Sides face, grand square
So, turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
You know sad songs say so much


ALTERNATE LYRICS

**When every single word makes sense
Then it's easier to have those songs


TAG

When that hope is gone
You know sad songs say so much
