Masquerade (This) by Leon Russell
Sung by George Benson (#10 in '76)
Am Am+7 Am7 D9
Are we really happy with this lonely game we play,
Am F7 E7 Bm7-5 E7
Looking for words to say?
Am Am+7 Am7 D9
Searching but not finding understanding any way,
F7 E7 Am
We're lost in this masquerade
Bridge:
Gm7 C7 FM7 Dm7
Both afraid to say we're just too far away,
Gm7 C7 FM7
From being close together from the start
F#m7 B7 E6 E6
We tried to talk it over, but the words got in the way,
D B7 E7 Bm7-5 E7
We're lost inside this lonely game we play.
(Instrumental)
Repeat bridge:
Am Am+7 Am7 D9
Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes,
Am F7 E7 Bm7-5 E7
No matter how hard I try
Am Am+7 Am7 D9
To understand the reason that we carry on this way,
F7 E7 Am
We're lost in this masquerade.
Am+7 - Am7 - Am6 - F7 - E7 - Am
Another great hit from Kraziekhat!
