Little pink dress, hanging by her knees
<span>C <span>G
Just overhead on the old trapeze
<span>C <span>G <span>Em
In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round
<span>D <span>C <span>G
One of these nights the old girl's going down
<span>D <span>G
Hallelujah, the old girl's going down
<span>G
She started with us on the back of a horse
<span>C <span>G
Just seventeen and already divorced
<span>C <span>G <span>Em
She took to the air with the greatest of ease
<span>D <span>C <span>G
Like she was born to be gliding on the old trapeze
<span>C <span>G
Some people don't care if they live or they die
<span>D <span>G
Some people want to know what it feels like to fly
<span>C <span>Em <span>D
Gather their courage and they give it a try
<span>G
Some guy broke her heart and how her heart it did ache
<span>C <span>G
So she went to the tent of the lady of the snakes
<span>C <span>G <span>Em
Who gave her a potion and she drank it in
<span>D <span>C <span>G
After that her heart never ached again
<span>D <span>G
After that her heart never ached again
<span>C <span>G
Some people don't care if they live or they die
<span>D <span>G
Some people want to know what it feels like to fly
<span>C <span>Em
Gather their courage and they give it a try
<span>D
Fall under the wheels of a time goin' by
<span>G <span>C <span>G
Little pink dress, hanging by her knees
<span>C <span>G
Just overhead on the old trapeze
<span>C <span>G <span>Em
In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round
<span>D <span>C <span>G
