Em         D
Life is a circus;
Em          D  C
it's not a fair.
             B           (Bmaj7)
Life is a hard road
Em                   D
when you're not there
       C Em
at the fair...


Friends come to see me,
(And with what way shall I go?)
to see the show.
(To help my friend and foe--
I'll let them find me now.)
When will they realise?
(To laugh and drag my name on the ground.)
The circus must go.
(Nothing ever stung so badly.
And with what way shall I go?)
Ahh...

Papa, he talks to me.
Don't dry your palm.
Hm mm m
Gets deep inside you.
Hm mm m
Does you real harm.
Don't you care?

High tight-rope walker
(And with what way shall I go?)
stands straight and tall.
(To help my friend and foe--
I'll let them find me now.)
Don't lose your balance,
(To laugh and drag my name on the ground.)
await all.
(Nothing ever stung so badly
And with what way shall I go?)
Crowds don't care...

Life is a circus,
it's not a fair.
Life is a hard road
when you're not there
at the fair...

Notes: Hutch's guitar in the recording is out of tune, so I wouldn't suggest trying to play along.
