Introduction: Bm F# Bm F# Em F# Em F# Em Bm F#
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 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 Bm
Love left the masquerade
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# Bm F# Bm
The music box played on sad little serenade
F#
Song of my heart's composing
Em F# Em F#
I hears it still, I always will
Em F#7 Bm
Best of the bill, charade
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# Bm F# Bm
The music box played on sad little serenade
F#
Song of my heart's composing
Em F# Em F#
I hears it still, I always will
Em F#7 Bm
Best of the bill, charade
