Verse
Fm            Fm7M                  Fm7            Bb7(9)
Are we really happy here with this lonely game we play
Fm          C#7(9)   Gm7(b5)  C7   C7(B9)
Looking for words                to say
Fm                Fm7M      Fm7               Bb7(9)
Searching but not finding understanding any way
     Cmaj7      Gm7(b5)  C7    Fm
Were lost in a masq      ue     rade
(Piano notes as a segue):  Bb7(9)
Ebm7           G#7                C#7M      D
Both afraid to say were just too far away
Ebm7              G#7              C#7M        C#7
From being close together from the start
   Dm7              G7           C7M
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
      Gm     G7        C7                  C7(B9)
Were lost inside this lonely game we play
Fm                  Fm7M             Fm7            Bb7(9)
Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes
Fm         C#7(9)   Gm7(b5)     C7     C7(B9)
And no matter how    hard I try
Fm                 Fm7M           Fm7           Bb7(9)
To understand the reasons that we carry on this way
      Dm7(b5)     Gm7(b5)  C7    Fm     Bb7(9)
Were lost in this mas      que   rade
