But the Samaritan of the heartbroken, heartbroken
D                     C
Swam through the nicotine seize, and we exchanged the kiss of life
   F                  Em
Resurrection in a trance, the model, the Grail,

In a Marquee of promises I touched the dream, I hold the dream,

I have the dream to end the Cinderella search,
   D        C
Cinderella search, oh no more, no more!

B C# D#m

B C# D#m

B     C#          D#m
 Exposing bedside manners on a work extension
B      C#           D#m
 Awaiting development with paranoid Polaroid eyes,
B    C#    D#m
 Oh-oh,  oh-oh, Polaroid eyes
B       C#       D#m                    B
 The footman memorised the number but the prince still holds both the slippers
            C#            D#m
 And would you leave a palace for a bed sit and Canterbury Tales
B      C#    D#m
Canterbury Tales?
B       C#        D#m
Maybe it was infatuation or the thrill of the chase?
B            C#          D#m
Maybe you were always beyond my reach and my heart was playing safe?
       B         C#      D#m
But was that love in your eye I saw or the reflection of mine?
B             C#           D#m
I'll never really know for sure, you never really gave me time
B      C#     D#m
Give me time, won't you give me that time!
B C# D#m

Welcome   back to the circus
B    C#       D#m
Welcome   back to the circus
B    C#       D#m
Welcome   back to the circus
 B       C#       D#m
I always use the cue sheets but never the nets
B     C#       D#m
Always the cue sheets but never the nets, never the nets, never the nets
B              C#             D#m
Nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless, nevertheless
B    C#       D#m
Welcome   back to the circus!
