Max Stalling - Skyview Cabaret
Capo 2

[Verse 1]
    D                    G                 D             
The sun, the old vaudevillian, bows to the light applause
    D                     Bm                      E            A           
But before he's done, he does the one about vermilion and the curtain falls
  D                      G            D          A           G    
A slight breeze whistles gently as it sweeps the day's stage clean
    D                G              A       D      
For soon it will be showtime at the Skyview Cabaret
     D                 G                  D         
The evening star is alone for now in the western sky
      D                  Bm                      E              A              
A beaming host who steps out to boast of the stellar show being planned tonight
    D            G      D           A              G 
One by one each player, arrives and takes their place
    D                G                     A           D      
And fills the night with the theme song of the Skyview Cabaret

[Chorus]
                  G                   D   
So turn off your TVs, turn off your lights
          A                                 D    
Get out a blanket; turn on your love of the night
           G                        D    
Climb on a rooftop or drive out someplace
         A          D  
For the Skyview Cabaret

[Verse 2]
   D         G            D               
A bashful, yellow moon creeps on the stage
    D           Bm             E            A            
So shy and so timid that he'll only show us half his face
     D              G       D         A        G 
But sings a song so simple, so honest yet so true
   D                G                A                   D  
Clouds too proud to admit it explain away their tears as dew

[Bridge]
A      Bm                  G                  
Oh the night birds and the crickets sing along
A        Bm               E                  A  
So reach for my hand and I'll teach you the song

[Verse 3]
    D         G            D            
The sun is back again with a new routine
   D                     Bm               E                     A             
Even though it's a brand new show you might swear it's one you've already seen
   D                 G             D         A        G 
So if your days are reruns and you need a change of pace
  D                G                   A                   D 
Take my advice and make plans tonight for the Skyview Cabaret

[Chorus]
            G                  D       
Turn off your TVs, turn off your lights
           A                          D      
Get out a blanket; turn on your lover tonight
            G                    D       
Climb on a rooftop or drive out someplace
      A                         D      
Where love can be seen clear from space
                G                      D        
Forget all those dishes and the bills to be paid
            A                        D        
Why sit and fret when there's love to be made?
        G                         D      
Climb on a rooftop or drive out someplace

[Outro]
        A          D   
For the Skyview Cabaret
       A            D  
For the Skyview Cabaret
