Key: F
Introduction:
Bm F# Bm
When we played our charade
F#
We were like children posing
Em F# Em F#
Playing at games, acting out names
Em F#7(#5) Bm F#
Guessing the parts we played
Bm F# Bm
Oh what a hit we made
F#
We came on next to closing
Em F# Em F#
Best on the bill, lovers until
Em F#7(#5) Bm
Love left the mas...querade
Em A7 F#m Bm
Fate seemed to pull the strings
Em A F#m B7
I turned and you were gone
Em A7 F#m Bm
While from the darkened wings
C#m Em F#
The music box played on
Bm F# Bm
Sad little serenade
F#
Song of my heart's composing
Em F# Em F#
I hears it still, I always will
Em F#7(#5) Bm
Best of the bill, charade.
