[Intro]
Am F F#dim F
Am F F#dim F

[Verse 1]
         Am      F           F#dim  F
Is it a warning?    Is it an evil sign?
         Am    F           F#dim        F
Is it a people    who have lost their minds?
           Am       F          F#dim     F
Is it the darkness?    Is it a man resigned?
         Am         F          F#dim   F
Is it a best friend    leaving you behind?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
      Am               F           F#dim         F
Is it ever gonna stop?   Will they ever let you go?
       F#dim                                           F               F#dim
You're in a rush, they don't care enough, cause their lives are very slow
 Am             F              F#dim         F
Time is ticking on, you don't get a second shot
              F#dim                F                      F#dim            G
And when you sell your soul for a leading role, will the Lost Souls be forgot?

[Chorus]
       C                 G            Am           G
And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone
    Fmaj7             G
I'll dance here on my own
       C               G
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
      Am                G
Will play out one last song
Fmaj7               C
Before the sun goes down

[Verse 2]
          Am    F            F#dim           F
And is it envy?   Should it really make you sick?
    Am                    F              F#dim          F
Is now the time that you realise, you'd better get out quick?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
       Am             F        F#dim              F
Cause Time is ticking on, too long to fake your smile
              Am                   F                F#dim          G
But then you sold your soul for a leading role, so wear it for a while.

[Chorus]
       C                 G            Am           G
And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone
    Fmaj7             G
I'll dance here on my own
       C               G
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
      Am                G
Will play out one last song
Fmaj7               C
Before the sun goes down
              Em
And there she goes
              G
And there she goes

[Bridge]
    C
So run, Yoshimi, run.
       Am
Cause Billy's got himself a gun
            F
And you're right to be afraid: They'll

send you to your grave
                         C
'Cause it's strange and new
    C
So run, Yoshimi, run.
       Am
'Cause Billy's got himself a gun
            F
And you're right to be afraid: They'll

send you to your grave
                         C
'Cause it's strange and new

[Final Chorus]
       C                 G            Am           G
And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone
    Fmaj7
I'll dance

[Outro]
