Capo 2
Verse 1:
Empty [Am] spaces - what are we living for
abandoned [F] places - I guess we know the score
[Dm] on and on, does [E] anybody know what we are [Dm] looking for?
Another [Am] hero, another mindless crime
behind the [F] curtain, in the pantomime
[Dm] hold the line, does [E] anybody want to take it [Dm] anymore?
Chorus:
The show must go [Am] on, the show must go [F] on, yeah,
[Dm] inside my heart is breaking
my [E] make-up may be flaking
but my [Dm] smile still stays on. [Am]
Verse 2:
Whatever [Bm] happens, I'll leave it all to chance
another [G] heartache, another failed romance
[Em] on and on, does [F#] anybody know what we are [Em] living for?
I guess I'm [Bm] learning, I must be warmer now,
I'll soon be [G] turning, round the corner now
[Em] outside the dawn is breaking
but [F#] inside in the dark I'm aching to be [Em] free. [Dm]
Chorus:
The show must go [Am] on, the show must go [F] on, yeah,
[Dm] inside my heart is breaking
my [E] make-up may be flaking
but my [Dm] smile still stays on. [Am]
Bridge:
My [D#] soul is [F] painted like the [Dm] wings of [Gm] butterfl[F] ies
[D#] fairytales of [F] yesterday will [Dm] grow but never [Gm] die
[Dm] I can fly - my [C] friends.
Chorus:
The show must go [Am] on, the show must go [F] on, yeah,
I'll [Dm] face it with a grin
I'm [E] never giving in
on - with the [Dm] show. [Am]
Solo:
[Am] [F] [Dm] [E] [Dm]
Outro:
I'll [Dm] top the bill, I'll [E] overkill,
I [Dm] have to find the will to carry [E] on.
The [Dm] show must go on. [Am]
