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)
