Day after day (The show must go on)
G Em G
1. Gaze at the sky and picture a memory of days in your life,
Em C Am G
you knew
what it meant to be happy and free, with time on your side.
G Em G
Remember your daddy, when no
one was wiser, your ma used to say
Em
C Am G
that
you would go further than he ever could, with time on your side.
Bm C
Think of a boy with the stars
in his eye,
Bm C
longing
to reach them, but frightened to try,
Bm C Am D
sadly,
you’d say, someday, someday.
G Em G
2. But day after day, the show must go on, and time slipped away,
Em C Am G
before
you could build any castles in Spain, the chance had gone by.
G Em G
With nothing to say, and no
one to say it to, nothing has changed,
Em
C
Am G
you’ve
still got it all to do, surely you know, the chance has gone by.
Bm C
Think of a boy with the stars
in his eye,
Bm C
longing
to reach them, but frightened to try,
Bm C Am D
sadly,
you’d say, someday, someday.
G Em G
3. But day after day, the show must go on, and you gaze at the sky,
Em C Am G
and
picture a memory of days in your life, with time on your side.
C G C G
With time on your side, with
time on your side
C G
with time
on your side ...
