The show is over close the story book,
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
There will be no encore.
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
And all the random hands that I have shook well they're,
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
reaching for the door.
F G
I watch their backs as they leave single file.
F G
But you stood stubborn, cheering all the while.
Chorus (First Time):
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
I know I can be colorful,
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
I know I can be grey,
A2* A2sus* D2* D2sus*
But I know this loser's living fortunante.
F G A2
Cause I know you will love me either way.

A2 A2sus D2 D2sus
Most were being good for goodness sake but you
A2 A2sus D2 D2sus
wouldn't pantomime.
A2 A2sus D2 D2sus
You are more beautiful when you awake than most
A2 A2sus D2 D2sus
are in a lifetime.
F G
Through the haze that is my memory well
F G
You stayed for drama when you paid for a comedy.
Chorus (Second Time 'till End):
A2 A2sus D2 D2sus*
I know I can be colorful,
A2 A2sus D2 D2sus
I know I can be grey,

Bridge:
F G
Look ahead as far as you can see we'll,
F G
Live in Drama but we'll die in a comedy.
(back to chorus)
NOTE: On the last chorus, the song goes up a full step. So instead of playing
the A2 from the 5th fret, you would play it from the 7th and so on. The rest is
relative to the chord progression set above. If you hear the song, you'll get it.
