Sideshow Blues

Occasionally on the A chord he does this: e--0--------0---- b--2--------3---- He just hammers on the second part g--2---to---2---- so dont' hold on to it. Hope that d--2--------4---- explains it. a--0--------0---- E--0--------0---- My landlady treats me like I don't pay my rent Gave my car to my mechanic, I ain't seen it since My phone is always ringing, when I want to be alone They try and sell me everything from Heaven to cologne Everybody's got an offer I can't refuse It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues It's all a big commercial; It's a video of a man It's a plot to put an end to my attention span They make up all these issues, I never understood If I thought I could change things I'd run out to Hollywood But it's hard to kick the door down wearing seven dollar shoes It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues I've got them sideshow blues I want to tame the lions These center ring rich kids ain't even trying From college to the big top they take the best positions While I'm out in this tent with these freaks and musicians While I'm out in this tent with these freaks and musicians I'm moaning them sideshow blues (solo) I try to tell my girlfriend she's the only one that I've got This chick I hardly knows keeps on telling her she's not She got a loaded pistol, she waves it all the time Says some times you gotta kill a boy to keep his ass in line Well that's the way she sees it, she says she saw it on the news It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues See people play satanic records, and you don't know when they'll freak From quiet kid to maniac to movie of the week We're killing over cocaine, dying over sex We're bowing down and praying to who'll ever cuts the check When I go to church on Sunday, I can't help sleep in the pews (that's what I do) It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues It's a circus out here mama, Your baby's got the sideshow blues It's a circus people...Step Right Up
