Stained Glass Masquerade

Stained Glass Masquerade by Casting Crowns.

-------------------------------------------



This sounds pretty accurate to me.





(Standard tuning)



CAPO 1

------

Intro: F , C , G , Am.





                      F

Is there anyone that fails

                      C

Is there anyone that falls

                      G

Am I the only one in church today

           Am

feeling so small



                          F

Cause when i take a look around

                    C

Everybody seems so strong

                       G

I know they'll soon discover 

             Am

That i don't belong



                 F

So i tuck it all away,

                   C

Like everything's okay

                           G      

If i make them all believe it

                      Am

Maybe i'll believe it too



                  F

So with a painted grin

                C

I play the part again

                     G

So everyone will see me

                    Am

the way that i see them



-------

Chorus

-------

                        F

Are we happy plastic people

                        C

Under shiny plastic steeples

                          G

with walls around our weakness

                       Am

and smiles to hide our pain



                        F

But if the invitation's open

                                C

to every heart that has been broken

                            G

maybe then we close the curtain

                           F (Play once)

on our stained glass masquerade 



-------------------------------

                           F

Is there anyone who's been there

                       C

Are there any hands to raise

                        G

Am i the only one who's traded 

                   Am

in the altar for a stage



                          F

The performance is convincing

                      C

we know every line by heart

                         G

only when no one is watching

                     Am

can we really fall apart



                     F

But would it set me free

                      C

if i dared to let you see

                        G

the truth behind the person

                       Am

That you imagine me to be



                   F

Would your arms be open

                   C

or would you walk away

                   G

would the love of Jesus

                       Am

be enough to make you stay
