ON WITH THE SHOW
This is for an accoustic version. More wuss, less Rock. I play this slow and mellow
style. Most people don't recognize it until I get to the chorus. and then go... Oh yea! I
that song and good times ensue. Middle age ladies love it too... ;-) It's not the
but then again what is?
D A
Frankie died just the other night
Bm F#m
Some say it was suicide
G
But we know
D A
How the story goes
D
With his six string knife
A
And his street wise pride
Bm F#m
The boy was a man before his time
G
And she knew
D A
All their dreams would come true
D
But ya see, Frankie was fast
A
Too fast to know
Bm F#m
He wouldn't go slow Until his lethal dose
G
And she knows
D A
He'll finally come too close
[Chorus]
D
Well, on with the show
A
Going on with the show
Bm
Come on baby
F#m
No, no, no
G A
Oh my, my, my . . . [repeat]
He was bad
He was never good
But one thing that he understood
And she knew
All those lies would come true
The time has come and
He's paid his dues
Suzy finally got the news
She always knew
This day would come soon
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
He was stopped on a dime
With a switchblade knife
Some damn punk went and
Took Frankie's life
And she knew
She'd have to pull through
Broken down, with his broken dreams
With a wink of an eye
Said Suzy, listen to me
You must go
On with the show
Go on with the show
Going on with the show
Come on baby
No nono
Oh my my my my [repeat]
Oh baby
