D7/9  G       B7    D   Am7  Em       Cdim   
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine 
     C    Am7     G   G/F#   Am7       D7 
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine  
Am7 D9   G      D9  Am7 G7      C Cm 
I'm  afraid the masquerade is over 
  Cdim    G   Edim Am7  Cdim     Am7 D7 Gdim D7 
And so is love,       and so is love 
D7/9  G     B7     D  Am7  Em      Cdim   
Your words don't mean what they used to mean  
     C    Am7  G   G/F#        Am7    D7 
They were once inspired, now they're just routine 
Am7 D9   G    D9    Am7   G7     C Cm 
I'm afraid the   masquerade is over 
 Cdim     G   Edim Am7  Cdim    D7/9 G D9 Cdim G 
And so is love,       and so is love 
Bridge 
  Am7              D9 Cdim     G 
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci  
 Am7          D9   Cdim     G 
And get myself a clown's disguise 
 F#7     Edim           B       A    Am7      D9    D7 
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci with tears in my eyes 
D7/9  G     B7    D Am7  Em       Cdim   
You look the same  you're a lot the same  
     C    Am7  G   G/F#        Am7        D7 
But my heart says "No, no, you're not the same"  
Am7 D9    G    D9  Am7   G7   C9  C Cm 
I'm  afraid the  masquerade is  over 
 D7/9     C  C/B Am7   Cdim    Cm G Am7 Cdim G 
And so is love,    and so is love
