Show Must Go On  Queen



[A#dim/E]    Empty [Bm]spaces,[Bsus2] what are we [Bsus4]living for?  [Bm]
Abandoned [G]places.[G11#] I guess we [Em/G]know the score.  [G]
On and on.[A#dim/E] Does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another [Bm]hero.[Bsus2] Another [Bsus4]mindless crime.  [Bm]
Behind the [G]curtain.[G11#] In the [Em/G]pantomime.  [G]
Hold[G] the line. Does anybody want to take it anymore?
Chorus (8 bars):
[G]The show must go [Bm]on...[Bsus2]        [Bsus4]        [Bm]
The show must go [G]on..[G11#].      [Em/G]       [G]
In[Em7]side, my heart is [Em6]breaking.
Bm [F#sus4]        (N.C.)[F#]               [Em]
My makeup may be flaking but my smile still stays on.

Verse 2 (16 bars):
Whatever [C#m]happens,[C#sus2] I leave it all[C#sus4] to chance.  [C#m]
Another [A]heartache.[A11#] Another [F#m/A]failed romance.  [A]
On and on[Cdim/F#]. Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm [C#m]learning.[C#sus2] I must be [C#sus4]warmer now.  [C#m]
I'll soon be [A]turning[A11#] round the [F#m/A]corner now.  [A]
Out[F#m7]side the dawn is [F#m6]breaking,
bu[Em]t inside in the dark I'm aching to be free.

Chorus (8 bars)

Guitar break (6 bars):
(Bm) (Bsus2) |Bsus4 Bm |G G11#
G |Em7 Em6 |F#sus4 F# |Em
|
Ad lib "Yeah", "Ooh", etc.

Verse 3 (6 bars):
[F] My soul is [G/F]painted like the [Em]wings of butter[Am]flies.  [Cmaj7/G]
[F]Fairytales of y[G/F]esterday will [Em7]grow but never die.  [Am]
I[C#m7b5] can fly[A7/C#],     [Dsus4]my friends.  [D]

Final Chorus (7 bars):
[D]The [Bm]show must go on.[Bsus2] Yeah...  [Bsus4]        [Bm]
The show must go [G]on.  [G11#]       [Em/G]       [G]
I'll [Em7]face it with a grin.[Em6] I'm [F#sus4]never giving in.  [F#]
On[Em] with the show.  [A#dim/E]

I[A#dim/E] have the find the will to carry on... (with the, on with the)
Em7 Bm Bsus2...
show.

(fade out)

N.B.: The original track fades out on a Bsus4 but when playing live, I usually resolve
Bsus2 into a Bm.
