Oh What A Circus

         Bm                 E
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
                    A          E
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
             A
o clemens, o pia.

D                               G
  Oh, what a circus, oh what a show,
                       A
Argentina has gone to town,
                                     D
over the death of an actress called Eva Peron.
               Bm                             E
We’ve all gone crazy, mourning all day and mourning all night
                               A    E                A
falling over ourselves to get all     of the misery right.

D                                 G
  Oh, what an exit, that’s how to go!
                                   A
When they’re ringing your curtain down
                         D
demand to be buried like Eva Peron.
             Bm                                     E
It’s quite a sunset, and good for the country in a roundabout way
                              A    E                       A
we’ve made the front pages of all     the world’s papers today.
      D
But who is this Santa Evita?
              G          D       G  D
Why all this howling hysterical sorrow?
              A                 Bm
What kind of goddess has lived among us?
            D               G
How will we ever get by without her?

 D                         G
Salve regina, mater misericordiae,
                      A                      D
vita dulcedo et spes nostra, salve, salve, regina!
         Bm                 E
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
                    A          E
ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
             A
o clemens, o pia.

D                                     G
  She had her moments, she had some style
                                A
the best show in town was the crowd
                                D
outside the Casa Rosada crying "Eva Peron"
               Bm                                       E
But that's all gone now, as soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
                         A   E                        A
we’re all gonna see and how     she did nothing for years.
     D
You let down your people, Evita,
             G             D      G  D
you were supposed to have been immortal
                 A                  Bm
that's all they wanted, not much to ask for
           D                    G
but in the end you could not deliver.

 D                         G
Salve regina, mater misericordiae,
                      A                      D
vita dulcedo et spes nostra, salve, salve, regina!
         Bm                 E
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
                    A          E
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
             A
o clemens, o pia.

                      A                      D
vita dulcedo et spes nostra, salve, salve, regina!
         Bm                 E
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
                    A          E

             A
o clemens, o pia.
