                         F  
Before you drop the final curtain  
G                           C  
Before the big tower crashes down  
           C7                 F  
Before you pack away my trunk case  
G                       C   
I'd like to take a final bounce  
         C7                 F  
One last chance to hear the laughter  
G                              C     C/B  Am  
And see your face there in the crowd  
Am                     F  
One last moment in the spotlight  
G                          C   
One last chance to be your clown  
  
  
Chorus 1:  
                                F  
I guess you're tired of walking tightropes  
G                          C  
Hope setting up and tearing down  
           C7               Dm   
You want a place to call forever  
G                           Am     Am/G   F  
And rest your feet on solid ground  
                                    F       Fm  
Somewhere you've lost that sense of wonder  
                               C     C/B  Am  
But that's still the place I'm bound  
Am                       F  
I'm a storm in search of thunder  
G                         C  
I'm just a circus leaving town  
  
  
Once we could fill the room with laughter  
And fill each other's hearts with joy  
Through each trial and disaster  
Still we cling to our choice  
To take a path of one for giving  
A road that waits for no one  
You know we chose to keep on living  
Lord, tell me where did we go wrong  
  
  
Chorus 2:  
I guess you're tired of walking tightropes  
Hope setting up and tearing down  
You want a place to call forever  
And rest your feet on solid ground  
Don't try to break this spell I?m under  
Oh stop these wheels from spinning around  
I'm a storm in search of thunder  
Yes, I'm just a circus leaving town  
  
  
Tag:  
Some day you'll wake up a wonder  
And your heart will start to pound  
And you'll long for the fonder  
And the kiss is of the clown
