Intro: 32 counts--start on the word “raining.” No tags or restarts! (see note below)
Alternate song: “Look What God Gave Her” by Thomas Rhett (optional restart on Wall 10, which begins on 6:00 wall, after count 8 of Section 1. This restart occurs when facing 9:00)

Happy dancing!

Choreographer’s note: When performed to “Beer Can’t Fix”, this little dance is a bit reminiscent of older dances where a fixed step sequence was more common, and multiple tags and restarts may not have been included. I wrote this dance specifically with beginners in mind, and I opted to omit the 3 restarts in 2 different locations of the dance that would be required to keep the dance in perfect alignment with the verse/chorus structure of this particular song. The song does have a consistent cha cha rhythm throughout so I hope you’ll find its tag- and restart-free structure to be fun and easy for beginners (and others!) to enjoy to this great track.

I live the dance, but I wish it was 32 ct. (with restart) then it would feel an appropriate place to restart. Could you possibly add another 8? But it is fun!!

Thanks, Judy! It was a tough call because it actually would have required multiple restarts to stay on phrase at 32 counts. As a beginner dance, I decided to keep it simple and go with 24 counts so that it was easy to learn. I tried to make the steps non-repetitive so it wouldn't feel boring. Since the rhythm is consistent throughout the song, I'm hoping that it doesn't feel too strange to not restart at the beginning of each verse, and it allows beginner dancers the chance to just dance without the worry of multiple restarts. For me, it was either put in all of the necessary restarts or none, and I decided to try none. I appreciate your comment, though, and I'm glad you like the dance!
