[Verso 1]
 
C         Em 
Spotlight simmers on the floor 
Am7                           A7 
And falls on the ingénue, in powder blue 
       Dm 
And I watch her from the wings 
     G7                             C7  Dm G7 
She parodies the spring, and wilts away 

C               Em 
I'm dulled, I'm dancin' in the cold 
Am7                           A7                Dm 
Like cattails in the wind, I bend, but I don't fold 
                      G7                  C7  Dm  G7 
I'm feeling old, and phantom-limbed, and gray 
 


[Refrão]
 
          C                     Em 
But it's love, held with dirty hands 
                  Am7 
The lion and the lamb 
               A7 
Everything's a sacrifice 
                 Dm           Dmmaj7 
Whether you're smiling like a winner 
    G7             Em   A7 
Or cryin' like a clown, mmm 
 


[Ponte]
 
    D                     F#m 
So, I'm leaving you with this 
                  Bm7 
Something you can miss 
                   B7 
A tear before the final bow 
       Em            Emmaj7 
Is it everything you wanted 
      A7           F#m     B7 
With roses on the ground? (Oh) 
 


[Refrão]
 
             E                      G#m 
'Cause it's love, held with lonely hands 
                  C#m7 
Kicked out of the band 
                 C#7 
Everything's a sacrifice 
                F#m           F#mmaj7 
Whether you're cryin' like a winner 
     B7             E7  F#m  B7 
Or clapping in the stands
