[Intro]
G N.C. He walked up to the bandstand G Am N.C. And asked me, "Could an old man sit in?" D7 N.C. Across his face I saw the pain D7 N.C. And I felt it in these words G N.C. D7 I heard him sing
[Verse 1]
G "I can't believe what I see Am Looking back through the years D7 So many leftover scars G From a dreamer's career G I stole from the good life C And now it wants payment from me D7 I've nothing but memories G And little to give back you see"
[Chorus]
G And the show's almost over G7 C Let me sing one more song D7 Lord, the world sure looks lonely G When the crowd's almost gone G G7 So children please listen, C But don't sing along D7 'Cause the mountains were mean G And the meaning's all wrong
[Verse 2]
G He said, "On my way up Am I didn't want my little woman around D7 I was just always too busy, G Bathing in the fame that I found G Now the circus is over C Somebody please tell the clown D7 And darling please forgive me, G E7 I'm sorry for letting you down"
[Chorus]
A And the show's almost over A7 D Let me sing one more song E7 Lord, the world sure looks lonely A When the crowd's almost gone A A7 So children please listen, E But don't sing along E7 'Cause the mountains were mean A And the meaning's all wrong
[Outro]
A
And the show's almost over
