Lyrics
Emp ty (Bm)spac es,
what are we (Bsus)liv ing for?
A ban doned (G)plac es,
I guess we (Em)know the score.
(Em7)On and on,
does (F#sus)an y bod y (F#)know what we are (Em)look ing for?
An oth er (Bm)he ro,
an oth er (Bsus)mind less crime be hind the (G)cur tain
in the (Em)pan to mime,
(Em7)hold the line,
does (F#sus)an y bod y (F#)want to take it an y (Em)more?
The show must go (Bm)on,
the show must go (G)on.
In (Em7)side my heart is (Em6)break ing, my (F#sus)make up may be (F#)flak ing, but my (Em)smile
still (Bm)stays on.
What ev er (C#m)hap pens,
I leave it all to chance, an oth er (A)heart ache,
an oth er (F#m)failed ro mance.
(F#m7)On and on,
does (G#sus)an y bod y (G#)know what we are (F#m)liv ing for?
I (F#m)guess I’m (C#m)learn ing,
I must be (C#sus)warm er now.
I’ll (C#m)soon be (A)turn ing
’round the (F#m)cor ner now.
Out (F#m7)side the dawn is (F#m6)break ing, but (G#sus)in side in the (G#)dark I’m ach ing (F#m)to be free.
The show must go (Bm)on,
the show must go (G)on.
Ooh, in (Em7)side my heart is (Em6)break ing, my (F#sus)make up may be (F#)flak ing, but my (Em)smile
still (Bm)stays on.
Yeah,

Ooh, (Em7)oh, ooh, (Em6)oh.
My soul is (G)paint ed like the (Em)wings of but ter (Am)flies,

yeah,
the show must go (G)on.
I’ll (Em7)face it with a grin,
I’m (F#sus)nev er giv ing in, on

Ooh, (G)I’ll (Em7)top the bill, I’ll (Em6)o ver kill, I (F#sus)have to find the will to car ry on,
(Em7)show.
