[Verse I]
Em                C                 Em               C
It seems to me as though I've been upon this stage before
    G        D       C             Am       Em    C
And juggled away the night for the same old crowd
      Em             C                 Em                C
These harlequins you see with me, they too have held the floor
   G          D         C              Am         Em
As here once again they strut and they fret their hour
  G                D            C        C/B  Am  Am/G
I see those half-familiar faces in the second row
D                   Am                  Bm
Ghost-like with the footlights in their eyes
    C        C/B     Am                 G    G/F#         Em
But where or when we met like this last time I just don't know
Am                                     D    B7
It's like a chord that rings and never dies
    Em       C  Em  C  Em  C  Em  C
For infinity


[Verse II]
    Em                C                 Em                 C
And now these figures in the wings with all their restless tunes
    G        D         C          Am         Em    C
Are waiting around for someone to call their names
     Em                 C             Em                 C
They walk the backstage corridors and prowl the dressing rooms
    G         D         C            Am      Em
And vanish to specks of light in the picture frames
    G              D               C        C/B    Am  Am/G
But did they move upon the stage a thousand years ago
D               Am       Bm
In some play in Paris or Madrid?
    C     C/B    Am              G       G/F#       Em
And was I there among them then, in some travelling show
    Am                               D    B7
And is it all still locked inside my head
    Em       C  Em  C  Em  C  Em  C
For infinity


[Verse III]
    Em              C             Em              C
And some of you are harmonists to all the notes I play
G           D       C              Am      Em   C
Although we may not meet still you know me well
      Em             C               Em              C
While others talk in secret keys and transpose all I say
    G         D     C          Am            Em    C
And nothing I do or try can get  through the spell
   G                   D                  C        C/B     Am  Am/G
So one more time we'll dim the lights and ring the curtain up
    D               Am               Bm
And play again like    all the times before
    C     C/B      Am            G      G/F#     Em
But far behind the music you can almost hear the sounds
   Am                               D      B7
Of laughter like the waves upon the shores
   Em       C  Em  C  Em  C  Em  C
Of infinity
