[Verse 1]
F#m                  E
You shouldn’t put a lion in a cage
      A                        D
On a cart, on a train to go travel so far
F#m                   E                                 A
And everyone knows better yet it’s something we pay to see
 
He’s strong and wild
    D
In all the ways that you’d like to be
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m                     D
And everybody loves a circus
             A                    E
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
                  A                     E
I say that it’s what I know best how to do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                     D
And everybody loves a circus
             A                    E
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
               A                    E
I say that it is if it leads me to you
 
 
[Verse 2]
F#m                    E                        A
You shouldn’t put an elephant in chains for so long
                              D
He remembers everything but not where he went wrong
F#m                   E                                     A
And everyone knows bеtter yet it’s something that wе still do
 
He’s kind despite the places
  D
That you're paying to bring him to
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m                     D
And everybody loves a circus
             A                    E
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
                  A                     E
I say that it’s what I know best how to do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                     D
And everybody loves a circus
             A                    E
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
               A                    E
I say that it is if it leads me to you
 
 
[Verse 3]
          F#m*
Then you came
                                          E*
You didn’t need glass slippers for your feet
 
Just something for after the showers
              A
To keep ‘em clean, and you're like me
                                            D
You didn’t like lions and elephants for admission fees
                                                             D*
We didn't talk about it but the day would come we would set them
 
          A
Then you came
                                        E
Sat on my lap held a blade against my throat
                                            A
You could cut me I didn’t mind to bleed at all
 
And you're like me
                                                D
You didn’t like the lions and elephants for admission fees
 
We didn't talk about it but the day would come we would set them free
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m*                     D*
And everybody loves a circus
             A*                    E*
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
                  A                     E
I say that it’s what I know best how to do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                     D
And everybody loves a circus
             A                    E
But nobody knows it as well as I do, Mmmhmmm
F#m                  D
You ask me if it’s worth it
               A                    E
I say that it is if it leads me to you
