Standard (EADGBE)

The Troubador, the Troubador, sings from his heart

the song that's the hit of the show

Watch him sing and play the strings of his guitar

Alone in the bright spotlight's glow

The song is for someone he loved so true

who loved him, then left him for someone new

The Troubador, the Troubador, smiles as he sings

But his heart is breaking in two

Instrumental break

They beg for more, the Troubador, sings once again

the song that's the hit of the show

Watch him sing and play the strings of his guitar

Alone in the bright spotlight's glow

There is a hush in the darkened hall

A few hearts are heavy, and teardrops fall

But in the crowd, one head is bowed for the Troubador

Because her heart aches most of all

Troubador, Troubador, her heart aches most of all
