B G#m

Living on a lighted stage

F# E

Approaches the unreal

F# E

For those who think and feel

B G#m

In touch with some reality

F# B A E B A E

Beyond the gilded cage

B G#m

Cast in this unlikely role,

F# E

Ill-equipped to act

F# E

With insufficient tact

B G#m

One must put up barriers

F# B A E B A E

To keep oneself intact

Chorus:

G#m E

Living in the limelight

F# G#m

The universal dream

E F# G#m

For those who wish to seem

E F#

Those who wish to be

G#m E

Must put aside the alienation

F# G#m

Get on with the fascination

E

The real relation

F# G#m

The underlying theme

B A E x2

B G#m

Living in a fisheye lens

F# E

Caught in the camera eye

F# E

I have no heart to lie

B G#m

I can't pretend a stranger

F# B A E B A E

Is a long-awaited friend

B G#m

All the world's indeed a stage

F# E

And we are merely players

F# E

Performers and portrayers

B G#m

Each another's audience

F# B A E B A E

Outside the gilded cage

Chorus

Solo: G#m E F# G#m
