KRIS KRISTOFFERSON - The Show Goes On guitar chord

The Show Goes On

written by Kris Kristofferson

Album: "This Old Road"

3/8/06

INTRO: A

A

We used to talk about the rock and the roll

A

That made it matter not to sell your soul

A

Like a banner that we held so high

A E

We weren't afraid to fall

E

Steady rollin' thru the warnin' signs

E

That were hidden in between the lines

E

That kept us rockin' 'til the break of day

E A

Or any break at all

A

We used to take about a day and a night

A

Try to sing up all the soul in sight

A

Anyone who couldn't see the light

A E

We had to leave behind

E

And the sweetest thing you ever heard

E

Was the singin' of the Speckled Bird

E

And commercial was a dirty word

E A

We laid it on the line

CHORUS:

A E

It was all so easy then, we could do no wrong

A

We'll never be the same again, but the show goes on

HARP SOLO: E A

A

We used to drink about a bucket of booze

A

And try to chase away the black and blues

A

When it come the time to pay your dues

A E

We gave an IOU

E

To the devil with the dirty smile

E

Which he added to the growin' pile

E

Of the promises we mean to keep

E A

The day your dreams come true

CHORUS (3x)

OUTRO: A
