50 Ways To Say Goodbye
(ARROW 114) Rick Gittelman
OPENER
Grand Square
My heart is paralyzed
My head was oversized
I'll take the high road like I should
Allemande & Weave the ring
You said it's meant to be
That IT'S NOT YOU.......it's me
You're leaving now for my own good
FIGURE
Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
(1/3) You're leaving now for my own good
MIDDLE BREAK
Grand Square
She went down in an airplane
Fried getting suntanned
Fell into a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me
Allemande & Weave the ring
She met a shark under water
Fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me...I'm all out of lies
And ways to say goodbye
CLOSER
Grand Square
She was caught in a mudslide
Eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me
Allemande & Weave the ring
She dried up in the desert
Drowned in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east side night club
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
