C7 - X32310
Before you drop the final [F]curtain
[G]Before the big tower crashes[C] down
Before you [C7]pack away my trunk [F]case
[G]I'd like to take a final[C] bow
One last [C7]chance to hear the [F]laughter
[G]And see your face there in the [C]crowd[C/B][Am]
[Am]One last moment in the [F]spotlight
[G]One last chance to be your [C]clown
Chorus 1:
I guess you're tired of walking [F]tightropes
[G]Hope setting up and tearing[C] down
You want a [C7]place to call for[Dm]ever
[G]And rest your feet on solid [Am]ground[Am/G][F]
Somewhere you've lost that sense of [F]wonder[Fm]
But that's still the place I'm [C]bound[C/B][Am]
[Am]I'm a storm in search of [F]thunder
[G]I'm just a circus leaving [C]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 Im 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
