A7 Em7 Edim D A7 Edim Gdim Fdim D
Off comes the makeup, off comes the clown's disguise
A7 Em7 Edim D G Edim D D7
The curtain's falling, the music softly dies
Em7 Edim G G/F# Edim A7 B7
But I hope you're smiling as you're filing out the door
B7/F# Cdim Em Bm7 B7
As they say in this biz, "That's all there is
Em B7/13- A7
There isn't any more."
A7 G Edim D Bm G Edim A7 D
We've shared our moment, and as the moment ends
A7 G Edim D Bm G Edim A7 D D7M D7
I've got a funny feeling we're parting now as friends
D9 Am7 D7 G Bm5-/7 A7
Your cheers and laughter will linger after
Bm Bm7/E E7
They've torn down these dusty walls
Edim D Bm G
If I had this to do again
A7 Cdim B7
And the evening were new again
Bm5-/7 G Em7 Gdim A7/13 A7 D G D
I would spend it with you again, but now, the curtain falls
D9 Am7 D7 G Bm5-/7 A7
Your cheers and laughter will linger after
Bm Bm7/E E7
They've torn down these dusty walls
Edim A7 D Bm G A7 Cdim D6 B7
People say I was made for this, nothing else would I trade for this
Bm5-/7 G G/F# E7
And just think I get paid for this
