D A Bm G

I'm the kid who ran away with the circus

D A G A

Now I'm watering elephants

D A Bm G

But I sometimes lie awake in the sawdust

D A G A

Dreaming I'm in a suit of light

Bm Gmaj7

Late at night in the empty big top

Bm Gmaj7

I'm all alone on the high wire

Bm E7

Look he's working without a net this time

A Asus A

He's a real death defyer

D A Bm G

I'm the kid who always looked out the window

D A G A

Failing tests in geography

D A Bm G

But I've seen things far beyond just the school yard

D A G A

Distant shores of exotic lands

Bm Gmaj7

There're the spires of the Turkish Empire

Bm Gmaj7

Six months since we made landfall

Bm E7

Riding low with the spice of India

A

Through Gibralter

Asus A Em C D A Em C G A

We're rich men

D A Bm G

I'm the kid who thought we'd someday be lovers

D A G A

Always held out that time would tell

D A Bm G

Time was talking guess I just wasn't listening

D A G A

No surprise if you know me well

Bm Gmaj7

And as we're walking toward the train station

Bm Gmaj7

There's a whispering rainfall

Bm E7

Cross the boulevard you slip your hand in mine

A Asus A

In the distance the train calls

D A Bm G

I'm the kid who has this habit of dreaming

D A G A

Sometimes gets me in trouble too

D A Bm G

But the truth is I could no more stop dreaming

D A G D

Than I could make them all come true
