Roggae Key: D
(Al vocal) The circus is the place for me with bears and clowns and noise
(Matt vocal) I love the shiny music that descends from overhead
(Mike vocal) Alfred knew the moment when the stars all turned around
(Al vocal) But from that vantage point I frowned
(Band vocal) If life were easy and not so fast I wouldn’t think about the past. I can’t forget to turn the earth so both sides get their share of darkness and of light
(main guitar riff changes here) D G Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh (x2)
(Band vocal) So now I wander over grounds of light and heat and sound and mist provoking dreams that don’t exist A circus of light where dreams can take flight In the peacefulness dreaming dreams bring.
(Band vocal) If life were easy and not so fast I wouldn’t think about the past
D C F G F D x2
(sing below lines at same time layered - 8 times)
(Matt & Mike vocal) If life were easy
(Al vocal) The circus is the place for me
