F5                      C5
Star light gonna burn out tonight
D5               Bb5
And drink till I forget
F5           C5
Somebody turned out the lights
D5            Bb5
Now I don?t know where I?ve been


F5                   C5
Fell down and I?m on the ground
D5             Bb5
Now I?m looking up again
F5                    C5
To the sky where I used to shine
D5                Bb5
And that?s where it all began
D5               Bb5
That?s where it all begins
G5              Bb5
Nobody always wins
D5         Bb5
And that?s where we?ll all land
G5                 Bb5   C(barr?)        F5
Until we try again, again and again



F5           C5
Falling stars landing on the boulevard
D5         Bb5
That?s all behind the scenes
F5         C5
Should?ve known we wouldn?t get very far
D5         Bb5
In this town of broken dreams
A5       D5        Bb5            F5 
Someone should have told you, it?s not as easy as it seems
A5         D5         Bb5       G5
Someone could have shown you, it?s all behind the scenes
Bb5         D5
It?s all just make believe


**intro instrumental**


F5                        C5
Another round for the circus clown
D5              Bb5
He?s finally made it big
F5              C5
Center ring now he?s going to sing 
D5          Bb5
The national anthem
F5             C5
He wrote the song, it?s a sing-a-long
D5                 Bb5
Now he?s forgetting all the words
F5              C5
And now he cries just like Jekyll and Hyde
D5           Bb5
And the carousel it turns
D5           Bb5
And that?s where we all return
G5              Bb5
When will we ever learn
D5              Bb5
To laugh and play along
G5          Bb5       C(barr?) F5
The show it must go on and on and on




F5                C5
Falling stars landing on the boulevard
D5           Bb5
It?s all behind the trends
F5                     C5
Should have known we?d never get very far
D5              Bb5
In the city of dead ends
A5      D5        Bb5              F5
Someone should have told you, that?s just the way it goes
A5        D5               Bb5         G5
Someone could have shown you, it?s all in who you know
Bb5               C(barr?) - F5
It only goes to show
