Gm7  B7  Em  A7  Em  A7


[Verse 1]

Em            EmMaj7/D#
Are we really   happy   with
     Em7/D           A7
This lonely game we play
Em              C9          B7
Looking for the right words to say
Em                EmMaj7/D#
Searching but not finding
      Em7/D     A7
Understanding anyway
      C9          B7      Em
We're lost in this masquerade


[Chorus]

Dm7             G                Cmaj7  Am7
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
      Dm7           G     Bb      Cmaj7
From being close together from the start
   A/C#               F#
We tried to talk it over
          B
But the words got in the way
       A7    F#          B
We're lost inside this lonely game we play


[Verse 2]

Em                   EmMaj7/D#
Thoughts of leaving disappear
     Em7/D            A7
Each time I see your eyes
Em            C9         B7
And no matter how hard I try
Em                EmMaj7/D#
To understand the reason
       Em7/D          A7
Why we carry on this way
          C9               B7     Em  A7  Em  A7
And we're lost in this masquerade


[Interlude]

Em  EmMaj7/D#  Em7/D  A7  Em  C9  B7
Em  EmMaj7/D#  Em7/D  A7  C9  B7  Em
Dm7  G  Cmaj7  Am7
Dm7  G  Bb   Cmaj7


[Chorus Ending]

   A/C#               F#
We tried to talk it over
          B
But the words got in the way
       A7    F#          B
We're lost inside this lonely game we play


[Verse 3]

Em                   EmMaj7/D#
Thoughts of leaving disappear
     Em7/D            A7
Each time I see your eyes
Em            C9         B7
And no matter how hard I try
       Em         EmMaj7/D#
To understand the reason
       Em7/D         A7
Why we carry on this way
      C9            B7     Em  Em7/D
We're lost in a masquerade
      Cmaj7     B7      Em
We’re lost in a mas - querade


[Coda]

Em  Em7/D  Em7/C  Em7/C#

          Gm7       B7      Em
And we’re lost in a mas - querade
A7  Em  A7  Em  A7  Em
