What a circus, what [A] a show _ _ Argentina has gone [B] to town
_ Over the death of an actress [E] called Eva Perón
We've all gone [C#m] crazy, _ morning all day [A#] and morning all night
Falling over ourselves to [B] get off _ [F#] of the [B] misery ride
_ [E] _ Oh what an exit, that's [A] how to go
When the ring in your curtain [B] down
_ Demand to be buried [E] like Eva Perón
_ It's [C#m] quite a sunset _ and good for the country
In a roundabout way, you've made the front [B] page in all _
[F#] The world's papers [B] today, _ [E] but who is this Santa Vida?
[D] Why all this [E] howling, hysterical sorrow?
What [B] kind of goddess has [C#m] lived among us?
How [E] will we ever get [A] by without her? _ _ _
[D] _ [C#m] _ [E] _ She had her moments, she had [A] some style
The best show in town [B] was the crowd
Outside the Casa Rosada [E] crying Eva Perón
_ But that's [C#m] all gone now
As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
[A#] We'll all go to sea [B] and _ howl
[F#] She did nothing [F#m] for years

_ _ [E] let down your people, Evita
[B] You were [E] supposed to have been immortal
That's [B] all they wanted, not [C#m] much to ask for
But [G#m] in the end you could [A] not deliver _ _ _
Sing _ you fool, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got [G] long
The [D] queen is [G] dead, the king [D] is [G] through
She's not coming [D] back to you
_ _ [A] Show business kept us all alive
Since Gerontino told us in 1945
When [D] the star had gone, the clouds were for [G] thin
That's a pretty bad [D] state for a state to be _ in
[G] Instead of government we had a stage
[C] Instead of [G] ideas, a criminal is [A#] raged
[C] Instead of help, [F] we were [C] given a [F] crown
You didn't say much, [A#] but you said [C] it loud
_ Sing you fool, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got [A#] long
[F] The queen is dead, the king is [A#] through
She's not coming [D#] back [Fm] to you _

_ _ _ _ _ [C#]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
_ _ For I am _ only _ _ unimportant
_ And _ [G#]
undeserving _ of such [A#m]
attention
_ _ [C#] Unless we all are
I think [A#m] we all [F#] are
_ [C#] _
Ride on my train, on my pea
_ _ And when it's your turn, _ _ you'll remember
_ They fired [G#] those cannons, _ sang [A#m] _
lamentations
Not just [C#] for Eva, _ for [F#] _ Argentina
_ Not just [C#] for [Fm] Eva, _ for _ [F#] everybody
_ So share [C#] my glory, _ so share [F#] my conscience
So share [C#] my glory, _ _ so share [F#] my _ conscience _ _
_ It's our funeral too
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
