[Intro 1]
[Bb][Bb][C][C][C#][C#]
[D][D][A][A]
[D][D][A][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]Baby, although I chose this lonely life
It seems it's [A]strangling me now
[D]All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic car
They're all [A]laughing at the lie

[Chorus 1]
Oh, I've been [Bm]used, [F#m]ouuh
I've been a [Bm]fool oh, what a [F#m]fool
I broke all the [Bm]rules oh, [F#m]yeah
But I [G]must let the show go [D]on

[Verse 2]
[D]Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
They're all [A]after my blood
I [D]wish maybe they'd tear
down the walls of this theater
Let me [A]out, let me out

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I'm so [Bm]blind oh, I'm [F#m]blind
I wasted [Bm]time wasted, wasted, wasted [F#m]time
Walking on the [Bm]wire, high [F#m]wire
But I [G]must let the show go [D]on

[Interlude 1]
[D][D][A][A]
[D][D][A][A]

[Chorus 3]
Oh, I'm so [Bm]blind oh, I'm [F#m]blind
I wasted [Bm]time wasted, wasted,
wasted all too much [F#m]time
Walking on the [Bm]wire, high [F#m]wire
But I [G]must let the show go [D]on

[Verse 3]
[D]Baby, I wish you'd help me escape
Help me [A]get away
[D]Leave me outside my address
Far away from this [A]masquerade

[Chorus 4]
'Cause I've been [Bm]blind oh, so [F#m]blind
I wasted [Bm]time wasted, wasted,
wasted all too [F#m]much time
Walking on the [Bm]wire, high [F#m]wire
But I [G]must let the show go
I must let the show go
I must let the show go [D]on

[Outro 1]
[D][D][A][A]
[Repeat and fade]
