[Verse 1]
Amaj7                 B/A         G#7                  C#m  B
  Little man with his eyes on fire, And his smile so bright.
Amaj7                 B/A           G#7                         C#m  B
  In his hands are the toys you gave, To fill his heart with delight.
Amaj7                     B/A         G#7                  C#m  B
  And in the ring stands a circus clown, Holding up a knife.
Amaj7               B/A                     G#7                           C#m  B
  What you see and what you will hear, Will last you for the rest of your life.

[Chorus]
         Amaj7 B   Cdim                          C#m   B
And it's sad,  so  sad, There ain't no easy way round.
         Amaj7 G#7    Bm7       D/E             Amaj7
And it's sad,  so  sad, All you friends gather round
           Dmaj7
'Cause the circus left town.

[Interlude]
Amaj7    B/A   G#7   C#m  B  (x2)

[Verse 2]
Amaj7                   B/A                    G#7      C#m   B
   Little man with his heart so pure, And his love so fine.
Amaj7                      B/A            G#7                 C#m   B
   Stick with me and I'll ride with you, Till the end of the line.
Amaj7                     B/A         G#7                    C#m   B
   Hold my hand and I'll walk with you, Through the darkest night.
Amaj7                         B/A                G#7                             C#m   B
   And when I smile I'll be thinking of you, And every little thing will be all right.

[Chorus] 
         Amaj7 B   Cdim                          C#m   B
And it's sad,  so  sad, There ain't no easy way round.
         Amaj7 G#7    Bm7       D/E             Amaj7
And it's sad,  so  sad, All you friends gather round
           Dmaj7
'Cause the circus left town.

         Amaj7 B   Cdim                          C#m   B
And it's sad,  so  sad, There ain't no easy way round.
         Amaj7 G#7    Bm7       D/E             Amaj7
And it's sad,  so  sad, All you friends gather round
           Dmaj7
'Cause the circus left town.
