 Bm7 
The actors and jesters are here
 E9 
The stage is in darkness and clear
 Em9 
For raising the curtain
                                                                 D6 
and no-one's quite certain whose play it is
 Bm7 
How long ago, how long
                       E9 
If only we had listened then.
                 Em9                                                   D6 
If we'd known just how right we were going to be.
               Bm7 
For we dreamed a lot
And we schemed a lot
               E9                                                             Em9                                 D6 
And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart.     Aaah.
 D(V)                        A                                    G 
If everyone was listening you know
 D(V)                                          A                                            G 
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
 Bm 
Who'll be the last clown
 E9 
To bring the house down?
 G   A     G           A     G         A             G... 
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall
     C 
Well, what is your costume today?
Who are the props in your play?
 Gºre-learn 
You don't know what you've done
The finale's begun.
