Dm        Am           C          E
We are a lullaby, an everlasting song
Dm         Am             F / C             E
Taken as prisoners to a place where we belong
        Dm         Am          C    E
If the tune stops, I will not wake
Dm         Am             F / C             E
Oh no, without us I'm no one, my soul swells and aches
Am                      Dm                      C
So on the day when the music dies, so will our love
                                              E
There'll be some pain but I'll keep it in my locket
Am                           Dm                      
If you'll lead the band then I will have to follow
         C             E
There's no escape for me, so

   Am
(Play on)
                        Dm
Keep me dancing in the air
(Play on)
                         C
No one else they can compare
(Play on)
                   E
To the harmony of our sweet rapture
   Am
(Play on)
                         Dm
You have a supernatural flair
(Play on)
                        C
Push me further than I dare
(Play on)
                    E
Play on, play on, play on
                Am
So play on for me

Dm          Am             C           E
So if this melody should stop or fade away
    Dm           Am               F / C           E
The oceans will drain out and the stars disintegrate
           Dm          Am               C    E
It's like voodoo, I've lost all my control
         Dm           Am             F / C     E
I look into you, you make me rock and roll

Am                      Dm                      C
So on the day when the music dies, so will our love
                                              E
There'll be some pain but I'll keep it in my locket
Am                           Dm                      
If you'll lead the band then I will have to follow
         C             E
There's no escape for me, so

   Am
(Play on)
                        Dm
Keep me dancing in the air
(Play on)
                         C
No one else they can compare
(Play on)
                   E
To the harmony of our sweet rapture
   Am
(Play on)
                         Dm
You have a supernatural flair

                        C
Push me further than I dare
(Play on)
                    E
Play on, play on, play on
                Am
So play on for me
