verse 1 

Am                          F               E 
Every day the Masquerade is sending out the call 
Am                                 F                     E 
Every day that Night Bregade came crashing through that door 
         Am                              F                          
They said "What are you doing siting all alone just staring at the telephone? 
                                             E 
There's a place we know that you can go and join in the parade" 
          Am  
And I said "I'm just sitting here licking my wounds 
       F  
And i don't think i'll be finished soon 
                                  E 
Where can I find a place to hide from this mess I've made?" 


            Am 
At the Masquerade! 
                    F 
You'll be glad you came! 
                                                    E 
They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face 
         Am 
At the Masquerade! 
             F 
It's gonna be ok! 
                                           E 
Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! 



verse 2 

Am 
Blast and break through 
       F                 E 
They dragged me to this zoo 
 Am                 
"Put your mask on: That's the key" 
      F         E 
Which animal is right for me? 
Am 
So I burst through the pearly gates and 
F 
I was alarmed by what awaited 
                                E 
They greeted me with open arms: Like I was one of them 
          Am 
And I felt  right away they let me in 
 F 
Absolved me of my prior sins 
So I shed this wretched skin at last! 
    E 
And I became the mask! 


            Am 
At the Masquerade! 
                    F 
You'll be glad you came! 
                                                    E 
They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face 
         Am 
At the Masquerade! 
             F 
It's gonna be ok! 
                                           E 
Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! 



Bridge 

           Am                   F 
It's a chance to leave it all behind (leave it all behind) 
                             E 
Start again, begin a brand new life 
Am                               
They were right that I wouldn't hate it 
F 
To think that I hesitated 
I finally checked my checkered past 
    E 
And I'm not going back! 



            Am 
At the Masquerade! 
                    F 
You'll be glad you came! 
                                                    E 
They won't see the holes that in your soul when you cover up your face 
         Am 
At the Masquerade! 
             F 
It's gonna be ok! 
                                           E 
Trade your shame for wealth and fame where no one knows your name! 


   Am                                F 
Come along don't you fear the Masquerade! 
Step in: Don't be afraid 
Take your pain and deepest shame 
     E 
And let them go a the Masquerade! 
 Am                            F 
Grab a mask and cover up your face! 
Wrap yourself in silk brocade. 
Just forget the mistakes you made 
      E 
Cause no one cares at the Masquerade!
