intro :
Dm F C G
Dm F G Bb C(barr?) F
F C
Star light gonna burn out tonight
Dm Bb
And drink till I forget
F C
Somebody turned out the lights
Dm Bb
Now I don?t know where I?ve been
F C
Fell down and I?m on the ground
Dm Bb
Now I?m looking up again
F C
To the sky where I used to shine
Dm Bb
And that?s where it all began
Dm Bb
That?s where it all begins
G Bb
Nobody always wins
Dm Bb
And that?s where we?ll all land
G Bb C(barr?) F
Until we try again, again and again
F C
Falling stars landing on the boulevard
Dm Bb
That?s all behind the scenes
F C
Should?ve known we wouldn?t get very far
Dm Bb
In this town of broken dreams
A Dm Bb F
Someone should have told you, it?s not as easy as it seems
A Dm Bb G
Someone could have shown you, it?s all behind the scenes
Bb Dm
It?s all just make believe
**intro instrumental**
F C
Another round for the circus clown
Dm Bb
He?s finally made it big
F C
Center ring now he?s going to sing
Dm Bb
The national anthem
F C
He wrote the song, it?s a sing-a-long
Dm Bb
Now he?s forgetting all the words
F C
And now he cries just like Jekyll and Hyde
Dm Bb
And the carousel it turns
Dm Bb
And that?s where we all return
G Bb
When will we ever learn
Dm Bb
To laugh and play along
G Bb C(barr?) F
The show it must go on and on and on
F C
Falling stars landing on the boulevard
Dm Bb
It?s all behind the trends
F C
Should have known we?d never get very far
Dm Bb
In the city of dead ends
A Dm Bb F
Someone should have told you, that?s just the way it goes
A Dm Bb G
Someone could have shown you, it?s all in who you know
Bb C(barr?) - F
It only goes to show
