Tonart: A major
Verse 1

F
As the firelight is casting,
C
Flickering shadows on the wall,
G
We see a grey -haired gentleman
C
Come slowly walking down the hall.
Bb
He sits down by the fireside,
F
C
his eyes are filled with tears
G
Then this old retired showman
C
drifts back through the years
Bb
He sees his name in bright lights,
F
C
a star in his own right
G
He hears the crowd applauding,
C
his act on opening night
Bb
The cheering of little children,
F
C
as he sings a song for them
G
Fans and friends were many,
C
oh his name was big back then
Are the nights he brought
the house down,
G
Said they'd never get his name,
And the way he picked a guitar,
C
Why he'd put them all to shame.
He recalls the standing ovations,
G
As he took his final bow,
Then for a moment he stops to wonder,
C
would they applaud him now?
For his fingers are all feeble and
G
his voice is nearly gone
He can't even press the strings down,
Only memories left to haunt him.
G
Memories from the days now past.
He's become what they call in the show world,
C
one of the old forgotten past.
Bb
Shadows on the wall are fading,
F
C
as the fire slowly dies.
G
We see a grey -haired gentleman
Bb
F
This old retired showman
C
no more will feel the pain
G
For he's gone to join the angels where
C
he'll sing his songs again
G
He's gone to join the angels
Bb
Where he'll sing his songs again
