F#m D A E Backstreet Listen up F#m This scene's so hypnotic D Smoking mirrors, lights and magic A E Paper faces in gold F#m There's soldier boys, beauty queens D Everyone's a mystery A E It's got me losing control F#m D Yearning, I'm yearning for the one to steal my eyes A E Wanna play in this game of disguise F#m D It's a masquerade, a love parade A E So won't you stay and dance with me F#m All through the night and day D A My masquerade, I need you baby E F#m So stay with me tonight D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade F#m D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade F#m Just like a perfect dream D I don't ever wanna leave A E A thousand freaks in the show F#m One's a tiger, one's a lynx D One's a king, a suffering A E Moving high, moving low F#m D Burning, I'm burning, can't you see it in my eyes? A E Wanna play in this game of disguise F#m D It's a masquerade, a love parade A E So won't you stay and dance with me F#m All through the night and day D A My masquerade, I need you baby E F#m So stay with me tonight D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade F#m D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade F#m D I gotta know (I gotta know) A the girl behind the mask E Let me in, where you've been, don't pretend F#m D Don't got to hide, no A E Show your face to me, we could be everything F#m D It's a masquerade, a love parade A E So won't you stay and dance with me F#m All through the night and day D A My masquerade, I need you baby E So stay F#m D It's a masquerade, a love parade A E So won't you stay and dance with me F#m All though the night and day D A My masquerade, I need you baby E F#m So stay with me tonight D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade F#m D A E Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade
