She needn't bother,

beneath this mask I wear

There's nothing of me,

Morning, Bernie.
Coffee, please.
Hurry up before I freeze.

We can't.
I fancy meeting you here.
Miss Sherry.

F#
This town is coarse
and cold and mean
It's hard to keep your conscience clean
F#
Faceless in the crowd
F#
Anything's allowed
And so I come at dawn each day
Come to wash it all away
F#
Sink into the sea,
F#
blue and cool and kind.

Let it set me free,
B

let the past unwind.

Miss Sherry,

F#
B
D#dim
B
I wish I knew,
F#
but I'm afraid her music has always been somewhat
of a mystery to me.
But there's more to this
than the music,
Monsieur, believe me, I saw it,
there's something, I I don't know.
Just take her away.
Now. For all our sakes.
F#m
Sail across the sea.
Put us out of mind.
Close your eyes and flee.
Let yourself stay blind.
What do you mean?
What are you talking
about?
Trust me, monsieur.
Don't let her sing.
Once he gets into her soul,
there's nothing she
won't do for him.
Leave this place behind.
Miss Sherry! Miss Sherry!
He's not Mephistopheles,
you know.
When it comes down to it,
he's just another circus freak.
