Verse 1:
Dm                    G7
Faded cliches and makeup
A#                  A#7          A7
Dancing and singing scripted delight
Dm                     G7
Every act ends in breakup
       A#      G                 Gm              Am7
That, same old boring story I’ve played too many nights

Dm                      G7
The curtain ends up falling
A#          A         G7
Then arrows strike my heart
C7      F#m7
Oh, but oh
F       A#                 F#m7
If some magic should find me

F        A#                  F#m
Like the magic in your eyes, oh
F        A#                   A  Am7 C7 G
If your eyes would invite me, oh

Verse 2:
Dm
For my finale, waiting
Gm         Dm7       Gm            C
Off in the wings, to sing the last song
Dm
And when we’re done pretending
Dm                   G7
Throw me a white bouquet

  F#m7 F        A#             F#m
Oh I, close the curtain behind me
F       A#                   F#m
And enclose me in your arms, oh
F            A#       A7      C# C
If your arms would invite me, oh
