Intro: Dm  Cm  Ab  Fm
       C   F   C   F A

Dm		 G
I'd like to be a lion tamer,
C		       F
Sequins and tights and silk top hats.
Dm		    G
I know I could be a lion tamer,
C		   F
I've always gotten along with cats.
Dm		    Gm
I'd have a whip but never use it,
Cm		   Fm
I'd simply hold it in my hand.

C		 F
I'd like to be a lion tamer.
C		F
If I could be a lion tamer
C	   F	   C   F
I would be someone grand.

C F A

Dm		G
I couldn't be a ballerina,
C		    F
I never could stand on my toes.
Dm		G
I couldn't be a Spanish dancer,
C		    F
I'd look ridiculous with a rose.
    Dm		   Gm
But everyone has a special calling,
Cm		    Fm
Something that only he can do.

C		   F
I could be such a lion tamer,
C	      F
If I could be lion tamer,
C	   F	    C   F
I would be special, too.

C A Bm7

Em
I could begin with baby leopards,
Em		 C
Move on to tiger cubs and then,
F		   Eb
After I learned to handle lions,
	Bm	   D	 C  Em  A
Maybe I could work up to men.

 
Dm	       G
I never wanted fancy mansions,
C	    	    F
Butlers and footmen liveried.
Dm	       G
I never wanted lots of money,
C			 F
Money can't buy what you really need.
Dm		   Gm
I never prayed for any favors,
Cm		 Fm
But here I am on knobby knee.

C		   F
Please let me be a lion tamer.
C		F
If I could be a lion tamer,
C	    F       C F   Em   F  Em Dm    G    C  F
Wouldn't he have to…      finally…       notice me?
