G Gaze at the sky
And Em picture a memory
Of G days in your life
You Em knew what it meant to be C happy and free
With Am time on your G side
Re G member your daddy
When Em no one was wiser
Your G ma used to say
That Em you would go further than C he ever could
With Am time on your G side
Em Think of a boy with the C stars in his eye
Em Longing to reach them but C frightened to try
Em Sadly, Am you'd say, Em someday, Am someday
But G day after day
The Em show must go on
And G time slipped away
Be Em fore you could build any C castles in spain
The Am chance had gone G by
With G nothing to say
And Em no one to say it to
G Nothing has changed
Em You've still got it all to do
C Surely you know
The Am chance has gone G by
Em Think of a boy with the C stars in his eye
Em Longing to reach them but C frightened to try
Em Sadly, Am you'd say, Em someday, Am someday
But, G day after day
The Em show must go on
And you G gaze at the sky
And Em picture a memory of C days in your life
With Am time on your G side
With Am time on your G side
(day after day the show must go on)
With Am time on your G side
(day after day the show must go on)
