The Last Show On Earth

Tom : D
D C# D G
I stood behind the stage
D C# D G
the crowd was wailing wild
Bm
how was they to know
E7 A
that this would be the final show on this Earth
D C# D G
the clock was ticking wild
D C# D G
the atmosphere was tense
Bm E7
a girl who wanted autographs on her T-shirt
A
came up whispering to me:
D D/C
"don't make a point
B+ B
don't make a statement
Em Em/Eb G/D A
don't try to tell them what's right or wrong
  D      D/C
B+ B
just make them happy for a short while
Em A D
make the performance of your life"
D C# D G
The crowd was getting loud
D C# D G
why me and why not "Frankieboy"?
Bm
this is like a nightmare
E7 A
am I vain - or can I just not see this through?
  D      D/C
B+ B
I went on stage and sang my guts out
Em Em/Eb G/D A
I felt the stiGmas in my hands
  D      C/D
B+ B
I was a healer for a short while
Em A G
and then the spotlights just went out
G
( Gm ) D
say good-bye, say good-bye
(solo) D C# D G
  D  C#   D    G   Bm   E7   A    D   D/C   Bm  Em  Em/Eb  G/D  A    D  D/C  Bm   Em    A    D
I went on stage and sang my guts out
no resurrection was in sight
this was the moment of the last show
the last show on this Earth
say good-bye, say good-bye, say good-bye, say good-bye
( D/C Em/Eb means D chord and C bass )
