Just An Illusion

D

[Verse 1]
D                    G             D
I've been told 'bout living like a star,
A                             D
Hotel Rich, champagne and caviar.
    G                           D
But no one ever showed me the reverse
                A                      D
and that really hurts, babe, it really hurts.
     D                G             D
They try to sell your body and your soul,
A                                 D
it's the price you pay for rock'n roll.
    G                              D
And no one understands it, how you feel
              A                   D
for it's so unreal, oh, it's so unreal.

[Chorus]
      D                 G             A                 D
Baby, don't you cry for me, it's an illusion, just an illusion.
            D                     G             A
I thought I knew what life should be, it's an illusion,
          D
just an illusion.

[Verse 2]
     D            G              D
When critics crucify your latest show,
  A                                D
another drink and then you lose control.
    G                           D
But then on stage I feel a fire burn,
              A                       D
there is no return; I'm always on the run.
  G                                 D
I give it to you, babe, with all my heart,
                 A                        D
for it's not too late, baby, it's not too late.

[End-Chorus]
      D                 G             A                 D
Baby, don't you cry for me, it's an illusion, just an illusion.
            D                     G             A
I thought I knew what life should be, it's an illusion,
          D
just an illusion.
      D                 G             A                 D
Baby, don't you cry for me, it's an illusion, just an illusion.
            D                     G             A
I thought I knew what life should be, it's an illusion,
          D       Dsus4      D
just an illusion.
