my place, I got makeup all over my face C G I think I know my lines, but I don't know CHORUS: C G One for the money, two for the show C G Three for the lady on the radio C G Four might be the one you'll never know, you'll never know Am D If only there was a better way to go C G (Way to go) Two for the show 2ND VERSE: G D I'm waiting in the wings, while the queen of virtue sings C G C It'll break her heart when I tell her she's out of key G D If they gave her half a chance, she could soon learn how to dance C G So she could earn her living gracefully CHORUS: C G One for the money, two for the show C G Three for the lady on the radio C G Four might be the one you'll never know, you'll never know Am D If only there was a better way to go G (Way to go) Two for the show GUITAR BREAK: G
