Written by Leon Russell
Am Am7+ Am7 D9
Are we really happy with this lonely game we play,
Am F7 E7 Bm7/5- E7
Looking for words to say?
Am Am7+ Am7 D9
Searching but not finding understanding any way,
F7 E7 Am
We're lost in this masquerade
Bridge:
Gm7 C7 Fm7 Dm7
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
Gm7 C7 Fm7
From being close together from the start;
F#m7 B7 Em7 E6 alt
We tried to talk it over, but the words got in the way;
D B7 E7 Bm7/5- E7
We're lost inside this lonely game we play.
(Instrumental Interlude - 1 verse)
Repeat Bridge:
Am Am7+ Am7 D9
Thoughts of leaving disappear ev'ry time I see your eyes,
Am F7 E7 Bm7/5- E7
No matter how hard I try
Am Am7+ Am7 D9
To understand the reason that we carry on this way,
F7 E7 Am Am7+ Am7 Am6 F7 E7 Am
We're lost in this masquerade.
