Tabbed by: Jack.J (Padge)


      Bm
Empty spaces, what are we living for?

	    G
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score.

Em 	          F#m 	                 Em
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for?

        Bm
Another hero, another mindless crime,

	     G
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime,

Em	              F#m	              Em
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?


	          Bm
The show must go on,

	          G
The show must go on.

  Em
Inside my heart is breaking,

   F#m
My make-up may be flaking,

       Em         Bm
But my smile still stays on.


         C#m
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance,

        A
Another heartache, another failed romance.

F#m	          G#m	                 F#m
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?

            C#m
I guess I'm learning I must be warmer now,

	       A
I'll soon be turning round the corner now,

  F#m   	                      G#m	                      F#m	        Em Bm Em
Outside the dawn is breaking, but inside in the dark I'm aching to be free.

	          Bm
The show must go on,

	          G
The show must go on.

   Em
Inside my heart is breaking,

    F#m
My make-up may be flaking,

        Em         Bm		Bm G Em F#m Em G
But my smile still stays on.


F	      G	           Em	        Am
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,

F	          G	            Em	          Am
Fairy-tales of yesterday will grow and never die,

        G	   Em
I can fly, my friends.

	          Bm
The show must go on,

	         G
The show must go on.

      Em                     F#m		       Em	Bm G
I'll face it with a grin, I'm never giving in, on with show.

     Em		                 F#m		        Em
I'll top the bill I'll overkill I have to find the will to carry on,


On with the ...

F#m	      Em
On with the show

                Bm
The show must go on
