D7/9  G          B7    D   Am7  Em       Cdim   
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine, 
         C    Am7  G    G/F#     Am7       D7 
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine  
Am7 D9   G        D9  Am7  G7      C     Cm 
I'm    afraid the    masquerade is over, 
   Cdim    G   Edim Am7  Cdim    Am7  D7 Gdim D7 
And so is love,       and so is love. 
D7/9  G          B7    D   Am7  Em      Cdim   
Your words don't mean what they used to mean;  
           C    Am7  G   G/F#        Am7     D7 
They were once inspired, now they're just routine. 
Am7 D9    G        D9    Am7   G7      C     Cm 
I'm     afraid    the    masquerade is over, 
   Cdim    G   Edim  Am7  Cdim   D7/9  G D9 Cdim  G 
And so is love,       and so is love. 
   Am7                D9 Cdim     G 
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci  
   Am7             D9   Cdim     G 
And get myself a clown's disguise, 
 F#7     Edim           B      A     Am7     D9     D7 
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci with tears in my eyes. 
D7/9  G       B7  D    Am7    Em     Cdim   
You look the same   you're a lot the same,  
    C    Am7  G    G/F#         Am7        D7 
But my heart says no, no, you're not the same  
Am7 D9   G    D9    Am7   G7    C9   C   Cm 
I'm afraid the    masquerade is    over, 
   D7/9    C   C/B Am7   Cdim   Cm G Am7 Cdim  G 
And so is love,     and so is love.
