the kid Cry Cry Cry
[D]I'm the [A]kid who [Bm]ran away with the [G]circus
[D]Now I'm [A]watering [G]elep[A]hants
[D]But I [A]sometimes [Bm]lie awake in the [G]sawdust
[D]Dreaming [A]I'm in a [G]suit of [A]light
[Bm]Late at night in the [Gmaj7]empty big top
I'm [Bm]all alone on the [Gmaj7]high wire
[Bm]Look he's working w[E7]ithout a net this time
[A]He's a real death [Asus]defyer[A]
[D]I'm the [A]kid who [Bm]always looked out the [G]window
[D]Failing [A]tests in [G]geog[A]raphy
[D]But I've [A]seen things [Bm]far beyond just the [G]school yard
[D]Distant [A]shores of [G]exotic [A]lands
[Bm]There're the spires of the [Gmaj7]Turkish Empire
[Bm]Six months since we made [Gmaj7]landfall
[Bm]Riding low with the [E7]spice of India
[A]Through Gibralter
We're [Asus]rich [A]men [Em] [C] [D] [A] [Em] [C] [G] [A]
[D]I'm the [A]kid who [Bm]thought we'd someday be [G]lovers
[D]Always [A]held out that [G]time would [A]tell
[D]Time was [A]talking [Bm]guess I just wasn't [G]listening
[D]No sur[A]prise if you [G]know me w[A]ell
[Bm]And as we're walking [Gmaj7]toward the train station
[Bm]There's a whispering [Gmaj7]rainfall
[Bm]Cross the boulevard [E7]you slip your hand in mine
[A]In the distance the [Asus]train [A]calls
[D]I'm the [A]kid who [Bm]has this habit of [G]dreaming
[D]Sometimes [A]gets me in [G]trouble [A]too
[D]But the [A]truth is [Bm]I could no more stop [G]dreaming
[D]Than I [A]could make them [G]all come [D]true
