Misc Unsigned Bands — Bare A Pop Opera — Role Of A Lifetime

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

One of my very favorite songs from this musical. 

   Dm
Everything's an act, 
                        C
When you're pleasing everyone
    Dm 
And he assumes that role 
           Bb
To such renown
    Gm 
He plays a perfect part
                   Dm 
Straight from his heart
 
Knowing the risk he takes 
       Bb             C
And hoping that the house
                Dm
Is not brought down
 
     Dm                                  C
The role of a lifetime, it's living a fantasy
   Dm                         Bb 
A drama that you struggle to erase
   Gm 
Thoughts battle words over deeds
            Dm 
A war with such casualties
      Bb          C              F
All played out behind a smiling face


 F                F2/G
God I need your guidance 
F/A              F2/G
Tell me what it means 
    F     F2/G       F/A     F2/G    Bb
To live a life where nothings as it seems
                         Dm
Spending days in silent fear                 
                                Bb
And spending nights in lonely prayer
                              C 
Hoping that one day when you wake
                          Dm
Those feelings won't be there

Dm                             C
So confused because I feel complete with him
       Dm                               Bb
When we're alone it all somehow makes sense
 Gm                              Dm
Look into his eyes for some compromise
 
Remember the word, forget
    Bb              C           F
And try to bury something so intense
 
 F                      F2/G
You learn to play the straight man
      F/A            F2/G
Your lines become routine
  F    F2/G    F/A  F2/G      Bb
Never really saying what you mean
                            Dm 
But I know the scene will change
                            Bb 
White picket fences, and a dog

A trophy bride, and children
 C                          Bb
God I know that's what he wants
                          Dm 
But Jason what role do I play
                     Bb 
Am I a savior or a phase?
  
Am I here to damn you
        C                     Eb 
Or to help you navigate this maze
                       Gm 
Where confusion is a crime
                             Eb 
So you fill your life with sound
          
And if you dance like hell
     F                         Eb
You hope you never touch the ground
                              Gm
What happens when the music stops?
                        Eb 
In the silence will he stay?
                                    F 
One day he'll realize that these feelings
              Eb 
aren't going away
                         Gm 
So we drive ourselves insane
                        Ebmaj 
Spinning circles in our souls
                               F
As we dance around and play pretend
          F7
And once again
             Bb 
Reprise our roles
