LadyDpiano: Dancing on Ceiling

If you haven't heard by now... I'm a huge fan of Lionel Richie. You can find the chords to Jesus Is Love that I posted awhile back. There's another cool song written by this artist in 1986, Ballerina Girl . It's from the Dancing on the Ceiling album. It's a moderate tempo in the Key of C.
