Step up, buy a ticket - Front row, centre seat
D G Em A
A real live human drama of love and defeat
D G D G
Don't worry 'bout the cost my friend, you'll get your money's worth
D A Bm Em A D G D G
As a man and a woman star in the greatest show on earth
D G D G
May I direct your attention now, to ring number one
D G Em A
A man and a woman, the affair has just begun
D G D G
And they waltz beneath the spotlight to a round of warm applause
D G Em A
Then he puts on his clown mask and she her tiger claws
Bm C Bm C
As the band breaks into a rumba, they're blowing for all their worth
D A Bm Em A D G D G
It's the end of act one, in the greatest show on earth
D G D G
May I direct your attention now, to ring number three
D G Em A
A man is in the spotlight, the clown is on his knees
D G D G
He's kneeling beside a dancer, who has fallen from the wire
D G Em A
Working without a net, was she the victim of desire?
Bm C Bm C
And the crowd begins to wonder is this an act or is she hurt?
D A Bm Em A D G D G
As the spotlight dims to darkness in the greatest show on earth
D G D G
And now we're in the centre ring, they're lowering the cage
D G Em A
The lion and the tigress acting out their final rage
D G D G
But little children don't be scared when you hear that closing song
D G Em A
The love affair has ended, but the show it must go on
Bm C Bm C
And the circus train moves down the line from Memphis to Fort Worth
D A Bm Em A D G D G
Appearing now in your hometown, the greatest show on earth
