Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Wel[G]l i[Asus4]n[A]
[D]194[G]1 a
happy [C]father had [A]a son
[D]And by [G]1944 the father [C]walked
right out [A]the door
[D]And in [G]'45, the mom
[C]and son were still [A]alive
But [Bb]who could tell i[Bb]n '46 if the
[Asus4]two were to su[A]rvive
Well the years [D]were passing

[Verse 2]
[G]quickly
But not [C]fast enough [A]for him
So he [D]closed his eyes [G]through '55
And then he [C]opened them up [A]again
When he [D]looked around
he [G]saw a clown
And the [C]clown seemed very [A]gay
[Bb]And he set that night to join that circus [Asus4]clown and run[A] away

[Verse 3]
Well he [D]followed every [G]railroad track
And [C]every highway [A]sign
And he [D]had a girl in [G]each new town
And the [C]towns he left be[A]hind
And the [D]open [G]road
Was the [C]only road [A]he knew
But the [Bb]color of his dreams
Was slowly [A]turning into blue

[Verse 4]
Then he [A]met [D]a girl, the [G]kind of girl
He [C]wanted all [A]his life
She was [D]soft and kind and [G]good to him
So he [C]took her for [A]his wife
And they [D]got a house not [G]far from town
And [C]in a little [A]while
The [Bb]girl had seen the doctor
And she [A]came home with a smile

[Verse 5]
[D]Now in [G]1961, a happy fat[C]her had a s[A]on
[D]And by [G]1964 the father
[C]walked right out [A]the door
[D]And [G]in '65 the mom
[C]and son were still [A]around
But [Bb]what will happen to the boy
When the [A]circus comes [D]to[G][C][A][D][G][C]
