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 G7M
Late at night in the empty big top
Bm G7M
I'm all alone on the high wire
Bm E7
Look he's working without a net this time
A Asus A
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 G7M
There're the spires of the Turkish Empire
Bm G7M
Six months since we made landfall
Bm E7
Riding low with the spice of India
A
Through Gibralter
A Em C DA Em C GA
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 G7M
And as we're walking toward the train station
Bm G7M
There's a whispering rainfall
Bm E7
Cross the boulevard you slip your hand in mine
A Asus A
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
