D MajorD     G+G   C majorC D MajorD
She was a woman
D MajorD    G+G  C majorC D MajorD
sawed in half
D MajorD   G+G    C majorC D MajorD
It was done by
D MajorD    G+G   C majorC D MajorD
a bad magician
D MajorD      G+G    C majorC   D MajorD
There was a point at which
D MajorD        G+G   C majorC D MajorD
she just had to laugh
D MajorD       G+G   C majorC D MajorD
You could appreciate
D MajorD   G+G   C majorC D MajorD
her position
D MajorD      G+G    C majorC D MajorD
Her legs in one way
D MajorD        G+G  C majorC D MajorD
and her head another
D MajorD       G+G    C majorC   D MajorD
She just kept thinking about
D MajorD    G+G  C majorC D MajorD
walking away
D MajorD       G+G    C majorC    D MajorD
They tried to put her back together
D MajorD       G+G   C majorC D MajorD
underneath the cover
D MajorD    G+G     C majorC     D MajorD
But her heart kept getting in,
D MajorD       G+G  C majorC D MajorD
getting in the way

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

D MajorD          G+G  C majorC D MajorD
love, this was show time
D MajorD     G+G    C majorC    D MajorD
And he was sweating bullets
D MajorD       G+G   C majorC D MajorD
and walking on glass
D MajorD         G+G        C majorC D MajorD
Somewhere between the evening news

and tomorrow's headline   Buzz awhile

sawed in half

It was done by
D MajorD    G+G   C majorC D MajorD
a bad magician

D MajorD       G+G    C majorC D MajorD

D MajorD    G+G     C majorC D MajorD
She was gonna have to make
D MajorD    G+G   C majorC D MajorD
her own decisions
D MajorD      G+G   C majorC   D MajorD
Her legs got up and walked away
D MajorD         G+G   C majorC D MajorD
and her head came rolling
D MajorD        G+G    C majorC   D MajorD
Oh, the room was painted black light
D MajorD          G+G  C majorC   D MajorD
and, and turning the day glow
D MajorD        G+G     C majorC D MajorD
She wound up in two places at once,
D MajorD       G+G    C majorC D MajorD
her heart was swollen
D MajorD       G+G    C majorC  D MajorD
He played his musical saw
D MajorD         G+G     C majorC D MajorD
in the streets of San Diego

Chorus:
D MajorD  C majorC  G+G    D MajorD
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

in a circus in Bombay
   G+G       C majorC D MajorD           G+G  C majorC D MajorD
Now a woman's gonna do exactly what a woman's gonna
G+G   C majorC    D MajorD               G+G   C majorC  D MajorD
Yeah, some bad magicians wouldn't have it any other way
     G+G   C majorC    D MajorD               G+G   C majorC  D MajorD
She holds on to that trapeze by the skin of her teeth or so they say
