[Verse 1]
[G]Lit[Gm]tle p[G]ink dress,[Gm]
[G]han[C]ging by her knees[G]
[C]Just overhead on the [G]old trapeze
In [C]the old tent tonight,
spot[G]light going [Em]round
[D]One of these nights [G]the old
[C]girl's going [G]down
Halle[D]lujah,
the old girl's going [G]down[Gm][G]

[Verse 2]
She [G]started with us on the back
of [Gm]a horse
[C]Just seventeen and [G]already divorced
She [C]took to the air
[G]with the greatest of [Em]ease
Like she was [D]born to be gliding
on [C]the old trapeze
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Some people don't care if
they live [G]or they die
Some [D]people want to know
what it feels [G]like to fly
[C]Gather their courage and they
[Em]give it a try
[D]

[Verse 4]
[G]Some guy broke her heart and how
her heart it did ache
So she [C]went to the tent of the
[G]lady of the snakes
Who [C]gave her a potion
and she [G]drank [Em]it in
After [D]that her heart never [C]ached [G]again
After [D]that her heart never [G]ached again

[Verse 5]
[C]Some poeple don't care if
they live [G]or they die

Fall [D]under the wheels of a time goin' by
