  			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
