[INTRO]

[Em9] [Em] [Em7] [Em6] [Em] (x2)

[VERSE 1]

[Em]Life is a [D]circus [Em]
it's not a [D]fair [C]
Life is a [B]hard road [B4] [B] [G]
when you're not [D]there
at the [Em]fair

[Repeat Intro]

[Em9] [Em] [Em7] [Em6] [Em] (x2)

[CHORUS]

[Em]Friends come to s[D]ee me
(And with what way shall I [Em]go)
To see the [D]show
(To help my friend and [C]foe)
(I'll let them find me[B] now)
When will they realise?
(To [B4]laugh and [B]drag my [G]name on the ground)
The circus must [D]go
(Nothing ever stung so badly)
(And with[Em] what way shall I go)
Aah

[Em]Papa, he [D]talks to me [Em]
Don't try [D]your heart [C]
Gets deep ins[B]ide you [B4] [B] [G]
Does you real [D]harm
Don't you [Em]care?

[Em]High tightrope [D]walker
(And with what way shall I [Em]go)

(To help my friend and [C]foe)
I'll let them find me [B]now)
Don't use your balance
(To [B4]laugh and [B]drag my [G]name on the ground)
Await [D]all
(Nothing ever stung so badly)
[Em]Crowds don't care
(And with what way shall I go)
