From the Album: Children Running Through

(Capo 3)

G                   C               G  
  Little pink dress, hanging by her knees
C                    G
Just overhead on the old trapeze
       C                      G          Em
In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round
D                           C            G
One of these nights the old girl's going down
     D                           G
Hallelujah, the old girl's going down

G 
She started with us on the back of a horse
C                    G
Just seventeen and already divorced
    C                        G           Em
She took to the air with the greatest of ease
             D                         C       G
Like she was born to be gliding on the old trapeze

     C                         G          
Some people don't care if they live or they die
     D                           G          
Some people want to know what it feels like to fly
     C                        Em              D
Gather their courage and they   give it a try

G                 
Some guy broke her heart and how her heart it did ache
       C                       G  
So she went to the tent of the lady of the snakes
    C                         G        Em
Who gave her a potion and she drank it in
      D                    C        G  
After that her heart never ached again
      D                    G  
After that her heart never ached again

     C                         G          
Some people don't care if they live or they die
     D                           G          
Some people want to know what it feels like to fly
     C                        Em              
Gather their courage and they   give it a try
     D                                 
Fall under the wheels of a time goin' by

G                   C               G  
  Little pink dress, hanging by her knees
C                    G
Just overhead on the old trapeze
       C                      G          Em
In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round
D                           C            G
One of these nights the old girl's going down
      D                           C            G
