            The Show Must Go On (Queen, 1991)


[Intro]
Bm   G   Em   F#   Em

[Verse 1]
      Bm
Empty spaces - what are we living for
          G
abandoned places - I guess we know the score
Em              F#                       Em
on and on, does anybody know what we are looking for?
        Bm
Another hero, another mindless crime
           G
behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Em                  F#                      Em
hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?


[Chorus]
                 Bm                   G
The show must go on, the show must go on, yeah,
   Em
inside my heart is breaking
   F#
my make-up may be flaking
       Em                     Bm
but my smile still stays on.


[Verse 2]
         C#m
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
        A
another heartache, another failed romance
F#m             G#                       F#m
on and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
            C#m
I guess I'm learning, I must be warmer now,
             A
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now
F#m
outside the dawn is breaking
    G#                                  F#m    Em
but inside in the dark I'm aching to be free.


[Chorus]
                 Bm                   G
The show must go on, the show must go on, yeah,
   Em
inside my heart is breaking
   F#
my make-up may be flaking
       Em
but my smile still stays on.


[Interlude]
Bm   G   Em   F#   Em


[Bridge]
   F       G                Em               Am G
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
F             G              Em              Am
fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
C#m7b5           D
I can fly - my friends.


[Chorus]
                 Bm                   G
The show must go on, the show must go on, yeah,
     Em
I'll face it with a grin
    F#
I'm never giving in
              Em
on - with the show.


[Solo]
Bm G


[Outro]
     Em                 F#
I'll top the bill, I'll overkill,
  F#                             Em
I have to find the will to carry on.
                    Bm
The show must go on.
