Breakfast At the Circus by David Wilcox
Capo 1st Fret
C Em C
I woke up this morning and prayed to the gypsy rose lee
C B Am F C
"Gypsy can you help me I'm struggling you see."
C Em F C
I heard her laughing over by the slot machine
C B Am F G C
She said, "Baby, baby, baby, I had the strangest dream."
C F
Having breakfast at the circus
C F
With the lions and the clowns
C F C F
Everybody's laughing just hanging around
Am F Am F
But nobody's gonna love you unless you help tear down
F G C
Breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns
People walking a tightrope
Head in the lion's jaws
They need a little mercy
So come on Santa Claus
And when you give your mercy
Won't you save a drop for us
We'll remember you, and your family too when they get us on the bus
[Chorous]
Am Em F
My ears are ringing and my mind is a mess
Am
Give me one goodnight kiss
Em C G
To help me forget the past
Woo! What a party
Everyone was there
Great to see you where've you been?
Hey who does your hair?
Free balloons and hats and soon the seal will catch a ball
And after that the acrobat will try to top the show
[Chorous]
