Charade

F                                Bb      F
The band still played through the interval
F                                Bb      F
Candle lit but the room was still
F                                Bb      F
While two men dealt amongst the chill
F                                Bb      F
while two men dealt amongst the chill

F                               Bb    F
The stakes were high but the danger low
F                                Bb      F
Without a friend these risks would grow
F                                Bb      F
This the night their eyes would glow
F                                Bb      F
This the night their eyes would glow

F                             Bb    F
The band played on like a dazzling flame
F                                Bb      F
Another card for the burning game
F                                Bb      F
Selling solitude to ease the blame
F                                Bb      F
Selling solitude to ease the blame

F                          Bb     F
Then the time came to run or choose
F                                Bb      F
Either way one would fail and lose
F                                Bb      F
Gamble a partner and dim the fuse
F                                Bb      F
Gamble a partner and dim the fuse
