ARoman Gcandles 
Dand empty liquor Ahandles 
and a way with Gwords has Dpulled you Athrough.
ATurn the Glight on 
so Dyou can see what AI've put on 
and see the Gsmile that I've Dgot for Ayou. 
 A   G   D   Ax2
AI know that you Gknew him, 
the Dway you looked right Athrough him, 
and I Aknow you Gknow that I Dknow you Aknow. 
ASo turn the Glights off, 
so Dyou can't see what AI took off, 
or Asee the smile that GI've gDot for Ayou. 
 D   E   A   Ex 2
DThe Ecurtain Afalls uEpon the Dstage floorEboards, 
Aand if the Eshow is Dover what the Ehell are we sAtill standing here Efor, 
Dthe Ecurtain Afalls uEpon the Dstage floorEboards
AwhGere you lie.
ARoman Gcandles 
Dand empty liquor Ahandles 
and a way with Gwords has Dpulled you Athrough.
ATurn the Glight on 
so Dyou can see what AI've put on 
and see the Gsmile that DI've got for Ayou.
