VERSE
[Cm]The actors and jesters are he[Cm7]re,
[F]The stage is in darkness and cl[F7]ear,
[Fm]For raising the curtain, and no-one's quite certain
Whose [Cm]play it is.[Cm7]
[Cm]How long ago, how [Cm7]long?
If only we [F]had listened then,[F7]
If we'd [Fm]known.. just how right,
We were [Cm]going to be.[Cm7]
For we [Cm]dreamed a lot and we [Cm7]schemed a lot
And we [F]tried to sing of love before
The [Fm]stage fell apart.[Fm]
Oh [Cm]o-h, o-h-h, o-h-h, [Cm7]o-h-h, [Eb]o-h-h-h

CHORUS
[Eb]If everyone was [Bb]listening you know,(Run Bb,C,Eb)
[Eb]There'd be a cha-nce that [Bb]we could save the show.(Run Bb,B,C)
[Cm]__Who'll be the last clown [F]... to bring the house down?
[Cm]Oh [Gm]no, [Cm]please [Gm]no,, Cmdon't let the [Gm]curtain [Fm]fall.

An actor indeed! Go re-Flearn your li-i-ines
