INTRO . . . . . . . .
Emp-ty spa-ces,
what are we liv-ing for
A-ban-doned pla-ces
I guess we know the score
On and on, does a-ny-bo-dy
know what we are look-ing for...
An-oth-er he-ro,
an-oth-er mind-less crime
Be-hind the cur-tain,
in the pan-to-mime
Hold the line, - does an-y-bo-dy
want to take it an-y-more
The show must go on,
- - The show must go on,
- - In-side my heart is break-ing
my make-up may be flak-ing
but my smile - still stays on
What-ev-er hap-pens,
I leave it all to chance
An-oth-er heart-ache,
an-oth-er failed ro-mance
On and on, does a-ny-bo-dy
know what we are liv-ing for...
I guess I'm learn-ing,
I must be warm-er now
I'll soon be turn-ing
round the cor-ner now
Out-side the dawn is break-ing
but in-side the dark
I'm ach-ing to be free
- - The show must go on,
- - The show must go on,
- - In-side my heart is break-ing
my make-up may be flak-ing
but my smile still stays on
My soul is paint-ed like
the wings of but--ter-flies,
Fair-y-tales of yes-ter-day
will grow but nev-er die
I can fly.... my friends
The show must go on,
- - The show must go on,
- - I'll face it with a grin,
I'm nev-er giv-ing in,
on - with the show
- I'll top the bill,
I'll o-ver-kill,
I have to find
the will to car-ry on...
- - - - - - - - The show must go on, - -
