Hiding in the wings      forever
D                   Dsus2 G     
We'll take the stage,     it's 
           G6
now or never
        D                Gm
And the whole thing reeks   of cheap
 striptease
D                        Gm
The matinee idylls, they all fall to
 their knees
Em                            A
 It's not all first nights at all
C                                 
 There's nothing more dull than a 
F          Esus4
curtain call

Playing Romeo,      you make 
       G6
your raw debut  (Yes you do)
D               Dsus2    G      
Rose red cheeks but your face is
         G6 G6/F#
 all blue
Em                               
 It's not all bouquets and white

crayons
C                            F   
 They're going to laugh when you 
        Esus4
look down
Em                           A
 I'm going to ask you if you want to
 be a chorus boy
F#m                      E       
 You can mime the tragedy while 
               G    E    G  E    D
we all sing along
