    I don't know if this is something everyone knows, but I realized that you could get the original key by putting capo on 5th fret and doing the same thing in standard tuning but higher up on the neck. Just thought it might help, sounds better in original key in my opinion :)

    I feel so unsure
    As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
    As the music dies, something in your eyes
    Calls to mind the silver screen
    And all its sad good-byes
    I'm never gonna dance again
    Guilty feet have got no rhythm
    Though it's easy to pretend
    I know your not a fool
    Should've known better than to cheat a friend
    And waste the chance that I've been given
    So I'm never gonna dance again
    The way I danced with you
    Time can never mend
    The careless whispers of a good friend
    To the heart and mind
    Ignorance is kind
    There's no comfort in the truth
    Pain is all you'll find
    I'm never gonna dance again
    Guilty feet have got no rhythm
    Though it's easy to pretend
    I know your not a fool
    I should've known better than to cheat a friend
    And waste the chance that I've been given
    So I'm never gonna dance again
    The way I danced with you
    Never without your love
    Tonight the music seems so loud
    I wish that we could lose this crowd
    Maybe it's better this way
    We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
    We could have been so good together
    We could have lived this dance forever
    But no one's gonna dance with me
    Please stay
    And I'm never gonna dance again
    Guilty feet have got no rhythm
    Though it's easy to pretend
    I know your not a fool
    Should've known better than to cheat a friend
    And waste the chance that I've been given
    So I'm never gonna dance again
    The way I danced with you
    Now that you're gone
    (Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong, so wrong
    That you had to leave me alone
