Guitar chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
DmDm
The dancer slows her frantic pace, in pain and desperation,
FF 
A#A#
Her aching limbs and downcast face aglow with perspiration
DmDm
Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire, with just the briefest pause
FF A#A# 
C majorC
The flooding through her memory, The echoes of old applause.
FF 
Dsus2Dsus2
She limps across the floor and closes her bedroom door...

Verse 2:
DmDm
The writer stares with glassy eyes, defies the empty page
FF A#A#
His beard is white, his face is lined and streaked with tears of rage.
DmDm
Thirty years ago, how the words would flow, with passion and precision,
FF A#A# C majorC
But now his mind is dark and dulled by sickness and indecision
FF Dsus2Dsus2
And he stares out the kitchen door, where the sun will rise no more...
