[Verse 1]
[G]I remember when I was a girl
[C]Our house caught on fire
And I'll never forget the look
on my [G]father's face
As he gathered me in his arms
[C]And raced to the burning building
out on [F]the pavement
And I stood [C]there shivering
And watched the whole [G]world
go up [C]in flames
And when it [F]was all over
I said to [C]myself
"Is that all there is to a [Bb]fire?"
Is that [Ab]all [G]there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
then let's keep [Cm]dancing
Let's break out the [Bb]booze
[Eb]and [Ebm]have a bal[Bb]l
If that's all [D]there [G]is[Cm]
And when I [Ab]was twelve years old
[B]My dad[Ebdim]dy took me to
[Cm]the circus
The greatest [Ab]show on earth
[B]And [Ebdim]there were clowns
[Cm]And elephants
[Ebdim]Dancing bears,[Ebm]
And a [Bb]beautiful lady in pink tights
flew high above our [Cm]heads
And as I sat there watch[Ebdim]ing[B]
I had [Ebdim]the feeling that [Ab]something was [Cm]missing
I [Ebdim]don't know what
[B]But when it [Ebdim]was all over
[Cm]I said to [Ebm]myself
"Is that all there is to the cir[Bb]cus?"[G]
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
then let's keep [Cm]dancing
Let's break out [Ab]the [Bb]booze[Eb]
[B]and [Ebdim]have a ba[Ebm]ll[Bb]
If that's [A]all [D]there [Cm]is
And then I fell [Ab]in love[Ebm]
With the most wonderful
[Ebdim]boy in th[Cm]e world
We'd take long [Ebm]walks
down by the river
[Cm]Or just sit for hours gazing in
[Ebm]to each other's eyes
We were so [Bb]very much in love
[Cm]And then one day
[Ebm]He went away
And I thought I'd [Cm]die
But I did[Ebm]n't
And when [Cm]I didn't
I [Ab]said to [Ebm]myself
"Is that all there is [Bb]to love?"[G]
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
then let's [Ab]keep[Cm]
I [Ab]know what you must be
saying [B]to yourselves
[Cm]If that's the way she feels
about [Ebdim]it
Then why doesn't she just end it [Cm]all
[Ab]Oh no. [Ebm]not me. I'[Bb]m not ready
for the final disappointment
'Cause [Cm]I know just as well as I'm stand
[Ebdim]ing here talking to yo[B]u[Cm]
That when that final mo[Ab]ment [B]comes
And I'm breathing my [Ab]last breath
I know what I'll be saying
[Ebm]to mys[Bb]elf
"Is [G]that all there is?"
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
then let's keep [Cm]dancing
Let's [Ab]break out the [Bb]booze
[Eb]and have[Ebm] a ball[Bb]
If that's [D]all [G]there i
