Arms: on count 7, extend arms down at sides with fingers out, palms facing back, then as he holds the note on the word "way" slowly bring arms up in front of body (palms toward body) to cross wrists at chest level as you curl fingers into fists (fingers towards body). Then start Part B
The third time you do Part B (which is after the Tag), but before you start the zigzag pattern on count 25, add two counts
1-2Sway right, sway left
After you do the zigzag pattern and drags back (counts 25-32), omit counts 32-38, and instead add one more drag back (step back on left, dragging right foot), then start Part B again
(Whenever you hear the chorus "Not a day goes by" you will be starting Part B.)
To finish facing front (original starting wall), the fourth time you do Part B, do the first 8 counts of Part B, slow down with the music, and add one more step (forward on left), extending arms forward at waist level with palms up, and hold that pose as the music fades
Special thanks to my friend Patti Kraft for the fun of making sure that we always "Finish Facing Front"
