    Am7                         Am7/E
The actors and jesters are here
    D7
The stage is in darkness and clear
    Dm7
For raising the curtain
                   Dm7/E         Am7
And no one's quite certain whose play it is

How long ago, how long?
   Am7/E       D7
If only we had listened then
        Dm7                  Dm7/E          Am7
If we'd known just how right       we were going to be
                                          Am7/E
For we dreamed a lot and we schemed a lot
       D7                               Dm7
And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart
Dm7/E        Am7     Am6     C
       oh-oh-oh   oh oh oh   ohhhhhh

                G
If everyone was listening, you know
C                          G                         E7/B Am
  There'd be a chance that we could save the show
                         D7
Who'll be the last clown     to bring the house down
F   Em7  F      Em7   F               Em7
Oh  no,  please no,     don't let the curtain

Am7                         Am7/E
What is your costume today?
    D7
And how are the props in your play
       Dm7
You're acting a part
                                Dm7/E
Which you thought from the start
       Am7
Was an honest one

Well how do you plead?

An actor indeed!
           D7
Go relearn your lines
          Dm7                   Dm7/E
You don't know what you've done
     Am7       Am6    C
The finale's begun


                G
If everyone was listening, you know
C                          G                         E7/B   Am
  There'd be a chance that we could save the show
                         D7
Who'll be the last clown     to bring the house down
F   Em7  F      Em7   F               Em7
