Capo 5
[D]You [D/C#]love the [D/B]way it makes me [D/A]feel [G]when I can't catc[D]h my breath
[G]Like walkin' on [D]a [D/C#]hi-i-ig[D/B]h wire[E7], Lord, it scares m[A]e half to death
[D]You're [D/C#]always [D/B]high abov[D/A]e me [G]and I'm alway[D]s fallin' down
[G]Our love's just [D]a [D/C#]circu[D/B]s ba[D/A]by, [Em] and I'm just [A]the cl[Dsus4]own
Chorus:
And I'll d[D]o tricks for yo[G]u, just like yo[D]u want me t[G]o-o-o
I'll d[D]o a[D/C#]nything i[D/B]t take[D/A]s just to han[E7]g around [A]
I'll paint [D]a smile for y[G]ou to cover up m[D]y frown
[G]Cause our loves a [D]ci[D/C#]rcus [D/A] and [Em]I'm just th[D]e clown
Everyone's in love with you, but they just look at me and laugh
And I'll bet when they see me cry, they think it's just an act
Ah, but someday when it's over and we bring the big top down
You can say it was one big circus and I was just the clown
Chorus
