You say: curtains down

When played on keys, one may actually note that the Cm's during the verses 
are played alternating with the Ab chord continuously. For clarity the Ab 
strums in the verses where omitted, but you can of experiment to find some 
way to play the song true to its character, although full chord strum seem 
out of the question. 

Lyrics, especially the first two lines are a bit iffy.
