Verse 1
(D major) I stand on stage and
(A major) watch the faces (D major)
And there's your empty seat
(G major) just staring at me
I (C major) try to memorize the
(D major) lines I've (B minor) written,
(D major) but I keep (E major) thinking back
to (Asus4) you. (A major)
(D major) Each song is like a lonely (A major) highway
that (D major) takes me far away
to (G major) precious memories.
We (C major) tried to live a life
of (D major) happy mo (B minor) ments
Now (E minor) I'm afraid (Asus4) I'm losing you (D major)
(Asus4) And (D major) when I go out on (B minor) the stage
It's just a mas (E minor) querade
To hide behind (A major) the feeling
I (D major) make sure I please (B minor) the crowd
And cover up the tears (E minor)
That fill my heart with sad (A major) ness (F sharp major)
(B minor) I'll keep a smile upon (B flataug) my face
(D major) Until the audience is gone
And (D major) now I must (Asus4) stay strong, (A major)
the show (Asus4) goes (G major) on (E flat major) (D major)
I'll sing my songs again tomorrow (A major)
I'll (D major) look and stare at all
(G major) the nameless faces
(C major) I'll hide behind the smile,
(D major) there'll be no traces (B minor)
(D major) Of all the (E major) sorrow that I feel (Asus4) (A major)
(D major) And even though they cheered
my (A major) singing (D major) (A major)
(D major) They'll never know how much
(G major) my heart is breaking
I'll (C major) keep a smile with
(D major) every bow (A major) I'm (B minor) tak ing,
(E minor) they'll never see (A major) the tears
inside. (D major) (Asus4)
And (D major) when I go out on (B minor) the stage,
it's just a mas (E minor) querade
to hide behind the (A major) gladness.
(D major) I make sure I please (B minor) the crowd
and cover up the tears
(E minor) that fill my heart with (A major) sadness (F sharp major) (B minor)
I'll keep a smile upon (B flataug) my face
until (D major) the audience is gone
And now, (D major) I (A major) (D major) must stay (Asus4) strong,
(A major) the show (Asus4) goes on. (C major) (E flat major) (D major)
The show is done, I leave the theater,
and I walk slowly back (G major) to my hotel room,
(C major) and there's neon sign
outside (D major) my window.
(B minor) (D major) I swear it's (E major) lighting
up your name. (Asus4) (A major)
Turn (D major) off the lights to go to bed now.
Begin to toss and turn,
(G major) my head is reeling. (G minor)
(C major) And there's your lovely face
upon (D major) the ceil (B minor) ing.
(E minor) I'm just (Asus4) about to lose
(D major) my mind (Asus4)
And when (D major) I step out on the (B minor) stage
It's just a mas (E minor) querade
To hide behind the (A major) feeling
I (D major) make sure I please (B minor) the crowd
And cover up the (E minor) tears
that fill my heart with sad (A major) ness (F sharp major) (B minor)
I'll keep a smile upon (B flataug) my face
(D major) until the audience is gone
And now, (D major) I must stay strong
(Asus4) The (A major) show goes (A major) (G major) on
