Opera Singer Chords

[Verse 1]
  E           Emaj7
I am an opera singer
  E7               A
I stand on painted tape
   A                  B
It tells me where I'm going
    B                 E
And where to throw my cape
 
[Verse 2]
  E                Emaj7
I call my co-stars "brother"
  E7                A
I call my co-stars "knave"
  A                  B
I play both good and evil parts
  B               E
I sing to Verdi's grave
 
[Verse 3]
    E            Emaj7
And every single morning
   E7        A
By 10 AM I'm dressed
   A                   B
My rehearsals last for hours and hours
     B                     E
With diligence I have been blessed
 
[Verse 4]
E                         Emaj7
Some people, they call me monster
E7                        A
Some people, they call me saint
   A               B
My talent feeds my darker side
    B              E
Yet no one will complain
 
[Chorus]
  B           E   A
I am an opera singer
  A               E
I sing in foreign lands
     B                 E  A
I've sung for kings in Europe
    A           E    B
And emperors in Japan
 
[Verse 5]
    E             Emaj7
And after each performance
       E7               A
People stand around and wait
        A                 B
Just to tell me that they love my voice
        B                E
Just to tell me that I'm great
 
[Verse 6]
  E           Emaj7
I am an opera singer
       E7                   A
I will sing when you're all dead
  A                  B
I sing the mountains crumbling apart
  B                  E
I sing what can't be said
 
[Chorus]
  B           E   A
I am an opera singer
  A               E
I sing in foreign lands
     B              E       A
Most people seem to know my name
      A                E  B
Or at least know who I am
