Lyrics
Empty (Bm)(Bsus2)spaces, what are we (Bsus)living (Bm)for?
Abandoned (G)places, I guess we (Em)know the (G)score.
(Em7)On and on, does (F#sus)anybody (F#)know what we are (Em)looking for?
(Edim)Another (Bm)hero, another (Bsus)mindless crime (Bm)behind the (G)curtain in the (Em)pantomime,
(Em7)hold the line,
(Em6)does (F#sus)anybody (F#)want to take it (Em)anymore?
(G)The show must go (Bm)on,
(Bm)the show must go (G)on.
(G)(Em7)Inside my heart is (Em6)breaking, my (F#sus)makeup may be (F#)flaking,
but my (Em)smile
(Edim)still (Bm)stays on.
Whatever (C#m)happens, (G#sus)I leave it all to chance,
(C#m)another (A)heartache, another (F#m)failed romance.
(F#m7)On and on, does (G#sus)anybody (G#)know what we are (F#m)living for?
(F#dim)I (F#m)guess I'm (C#m)learning, I must be (C#sus)warmer now.
(C#m)I'll soon be (A)turning 'round the (F#m)corner now.
(A)(F#m7)Outside the dawn is (F#m6)breaking, but (G#sus)inside in the (G#)dark I'm aching (F#m)to be free.
(Em)The show must go (Bm)on,
(Bm)the show must go (G)on.
(G)Ooh, (Em7)inside my heart is (Em6)breaking,
my (F#sus)makeup may be (F#)flaking, but my (Em)smile (Edim)still (Bm)stays (Bsus2)on.
(G)Yeah, yeah.
(G)Ooh, (Em7)oh, ooh, (Em6)oh.
(F)My soul is (G)painted like the (Em)wings of (Am)butterflies,
(F)fairy tales of yesterday will (Em7)grow,
but never die, I can fly.
(Dsus)My friends, the show must go (Bm)on,
(Bsus2)yeah, (Bsus)(Bm)the show must go (G)on.
(G)I'll (Em7)face it with a (Em6)grin,
I'm (F#sus)never giving (F#)in, on with the show.
(G)Ooh, I'll (Em7)top the bill, I'll (Em6)overkill,
I (F#sus)have to find the will to carry on,
(Em7)show.
