The Show Goes On Lyrics

INTRO: A
We used to talk about the rock and the roll
That made it matter not to sell your soul
Like a banner that we held so high
We weren't afraid to fall
Steady rollin' thru the warnin' signs
That were hidden in between the lines
That kept us rockin' 'til the break of day
Or any break at all
We used to take about a day and a night
Try to sing up all the soul in sight
Anyone who couldn't see the light
We had to leave behind
And the sweetest thing you ever heard
Was the singin' of the Speckled Bird
And commercial was a dirty word
We laid it on the line
CHORUS:
It was all so easy then, we could do no wrong
We'll never be the same again, but the show goes on
HARP SOLO: E A
We used to drink about a bucket of booze
And try to chase away the black and blues
When it come the time to pay your dues
We gave an IOU
To the devil with the dirty smile
Which he added to the growin' pile
Of the promises we mean to keep
The day your dreams come true
CHORUS (3x)
OUTRO: A
