Intro:G D A (2x)
Everybody get your ticket, its almost time
To set up this freak show and watch me unwind
For the next ninety minutes well be havin the time of our lives
I might sing something pretty if Im feeling loved
I might kick out the footlights if I drink too much
Ill give it all that I have hoping this time it might be enough
Til they pack up my guitars and unplug my star
Chorus:
Oh, a ringmasters night gets lonely
After the big top comes down
Yeah, cause I go from being somebody
To just another clown
When the circus leaves town
Well its cold, dark and empty back in my cage
And its all wasted hours til Im back on stage
And its scary sometimes what I will do to pass them away
You learn live for the lights when theyre keeping you alive
Chorus:
Oh, a ringmasters night gets lonely
After the big top comes down
Yeah, cause I go from being somebody
To just another clown
When the circus leaves town
Chorus:
Oh, a ringmasters night gets lonely
After the big top comes down
Yeah, and I go from being somebody
To just another clown
When the circus leaves town
Outro:
When the circus leaves town
Im leaving this town
