LEADING LADY
WORDS & MUSIC: Earl P. Reinhalter
INTRO: Am7 - A7 - Am7 - A7
Dm C#dim Esus4 E
with every blink of my eyes,
Em Em/D#
I see a new frame
Em/D Em/C#
from a lifelong film
Em/C Em/B Em/A# Am7 - A7 - Am7 - A7
improvised and starring me.
Dm C#dim Esus4 E
so far I'm standing alone.
Em Em/D#
no leading lady
Em/D Em/C#
has made her entrance.
Em/C Em/B Em/A# Am7 - A7 - Am7 - A7
maybe there is none at all.
C#m
so play on,
G#m
I'm waiting
A#
until the last reel
D#7 A
rolls by.
Dm C#dim Esus4 E
a soundtrack plays in my head.
Em Em/D#
not like Sinatra,
Em/D Em/C#
more like Tchaikovsky,
Em/C Em/B Em/A# Am7 - A7 - Am7 - A7
songs of things that have no names.
C#m
the movie
G#m
continues
A#
and the projector
D#7 A
is worn down.
Dm C#dim Esus4 E
I'm still on stage all alone.
Em Em/D#
no leading lady
Em/D Em/C#
has made her entrance.
Em/C Em/B Em/A# Am7 - A7 - Am7(dim5) - A7
maybe there is none at all.
