C Bb F C Bb F C
[Chorus]
C Bb F C
Velvet curtains draw the show to a close
G C
Our scene is over and the whole world knows
Bb F C
Velvet curtains shut the light from my mind
G C
I leave the stage, put my memories behind
[Verse 1]
F
How it started with a passing word
C
How you answered and I liked what I heard
F
Wasn't long before we fell in love
E F G
And we thought we'd never part
[Chorus]
C Bb F C
Velvet curtains draw the show to a close
G C
Our scene is over and the whole world knows
Bb F C
Velvet curtains shut the light from my mind
G C
I leave the stage, put my memories behind
[Verse 2]
F
How I started to depend on you
C
How you tried to be dependable too
F
But you found it hard to change your ways
E
And you merely broke my heart
[Verse 3]
F
Pretty soon I knew it had to end
C
Still I fool myself and try to pretend
F
But what's the good if there's another guy
E F G Ab
And he's playing the leading part?
[Out-Chorus]
