Masquerade (This) by Leon Russell
Sung by George Benson (#10 in '76)

Am (x02210@1)          Am+7             Am7 (x02010@1)          D9
Are we really happy with this lonely game we play,

Am (x02210@1)          F7 (131241@1)    E7 (020130@1)  Bm7-5  E7Looking (020130@1)for  words to say?

Am (x02210@1)               Am+7         Am7 (x02010@1)       D9
Searching but not finding understanding any way,

       F7 (131241@1)        E7 (020130@1)   AmWe're (x02210@1)lost in this masquerade


Bridge:

Gm7            C7 (x32310@1)               FM7      Dm7
Both afraid to say we're just too far away,

      Gm7         C7 (x32310@1)             FM7
From being close together from the start

   F#m7 (131141@2)           B7 (x21202@1)          E6 (04xxxx@1)             E6We (04xxxx@1)tried to talk it over, but the words got in the way,

       D (xx0232@1)   B7 (x21202@1)       E7 (020130@1)  Bm7-5    E7We're (020130@1)lost inside this lonely game we play.

Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes,

    Am (x02210@1)      F7 (131241@1)   E7 (020130@1) Bm7-5  E7No (020130@1)matter how hard I try

Am (x02210@1)              Am+7           Am7 (x02010@1)         D9
To understand the reason that we carry on this way,

       F7 (131241@1)        E7 (020130@1)   AmWe're (x02210@1)lost in this masquerade.
