Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am]
[F][F]
[Dm][E]
[Dm][E]

[Verse 1]
Empty [Am]spaces,
what are we living for?
Abandoned [F]places,
I guess we know the score
[Dm]On and on,
does [E]anybody know
what we are [Dm]looking [E]for?

[Verse 2]
Another [Am]hero,
another mindless crime
Behind the [F]curtain,
in the pantomime
[Dm]Hold the line,
does [E]anybody want
to take it any[Dm]more?[F]

[Chorus 1]
The show must go [Am]on
The show must go [F]on, yeah
In[Dm]side my heart is breaking
My [E]make-up may be flaking
But my [Dm]smile [E]still sta[Am]ys on
[Am]

[Verse 3]
Whatever [Bm]happens,
I'll leave it all to chance
Another [G]heartache,
another failed romance
[Em]On and on,
does [F#]anybody know
what we are [Em]living [F#]for?

[Verse 4]
I guess I'm [Bm]learning,
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be [G]turning,
'round the corner now
Out[Em]side the dawn is breaking
But [F#]inside in the dark
I'm aching [Em]to be f[F#]ree[Dm]

[Chorus 2]
The show must go [Am]on
The show must go [F]on, yeah- yeah
In[Dm]side my heart is breaking
My [E]make-up may be flaking
But my [Dm]smile [E]still

[Solo 1]
[Am](stays [Am]on)
[F][F]
[Dm][E]
[Dm][E]

[Bridge 1]
[Eb]My soul is paint[F]ed
like the [Dm]wings of butter[Gm]flies[F]
[Eb]Fairy tales of [F]yesterday
will [Dm]grow but never [Gm]die
[Dm]I can fly my[C] friends

[Chorus 3]
The show must go [Am]on, yeah
The show must go [F]on
I'll [Dm]face it with a grin
I'm [E]never giving in
[Dm]On with the sh[E]ow

[Outro 1]
[Am][Am]
[F][F]
I'll [Dm]top the bill, I'll overkill
[E]I have to find the will to carry o[Dm]n
(With the [E]show, with the) [Dm]show[F]
(Show must go [Am]on, go on, go on...)
