When The Circus Leaves Town

G  D  A  (2x)

A
Everybody get your ticket, it?s almost time
D
To set up this freak show and watch me unwind
        G                            D                      A
For the next ninety minutes we?ll be havin? the time of our lives
A
I might sing something pretty if I?m feeling loved
        D
I might kick out the footlights if I drink too much
             G                      D                     A
I?ll give it all that I have hoping this time it might be enough
          Em      A     D    A     G       D
?Til they pack up my guitars and unplug my star

      Em           G          A
Oh, a ringmaster?s night gets lonely
G         D             A
After the big top comes down
             G         D         A
Yeah, ?cause I go from being somebody
         Bm           D
To just another clown
                       A
When the circus leaves town

          A
Well it?s cold, dark and empty back in my cage
         D
And it?s all wasted hours ?til I?m back on stage
         G                           D               A
And it?s scary sometimes what I will do to pass them away
          Em   A       D      A            G           D
You learn live for the lights when they?re keeping you alive

      Em           G          A
Oh, a ringmaster?s night gets lonely
G         D             A
After the big top comes down
             G         D         A
Yeah, ?cause I go from being somebody
         Bm           D
To just another clown
                       Em  G  A   G  D  A
When the circus leaves town

      Em           G          A
Oh, a ringmaster?s night gets lonely
G         D             A
After the big top comes down
          G         D         A
Yeah, and I go from being somebody
                Bm  A  D
To just another clown
                       A
When the circus leaves town

G  D                         A    G  D  A
      When the circus leaves town
G  D                   A    G  D  A
      I?m leaving this town
G  D  A  (repeat and fade)
