[Intro]

C/G  G   x4


[Verse 1]

G                                      Bm
Baby cried the day the circus came to town
             C            D                 D/F#   G   D/F#
'Cause she didn't want parades just passing  by  her
          G                                      Bm         
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
            C               D            D/F#   G   D/F#
While she danced without a net upon the wire
   Em                             D/F#
I know alot about her, 'cause you see
Am                         D                    
Baby, is an awful lot like me


[Chorus]

G     D/F#     Em
Don't cry out loud
               Am   Am/G#
Just keep it inside
                 C/G           D
And learn how to hide your feelings
G   D/F#      Em
Fly high and proud
                   Am  Am/G#
And if you should fall
              C/G    D     Em   D
Remember you almost had it all


[Verse 2]

G                                            Bm
Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
      C                D               D/F#   G   D/F#
They left behind her dreams among the litter
            G                                     Bm         
And the different kind of love she thought she'd found
             C               D              D/F#    G   D/F# 
There was nothing left but sawdust and some glit - ter
     Em                              D/F#
But Baby can't be broken, 'cause you see
    A7sus4             A7              Am7  D
She  had  the finest teacher, that was me

I told her


[Chorus]

G     D/F#     Em
Don't cry out loud
               Am   Am/G#
Just keep it inside
                 C/G           D
And learn how to hide your feelings
G   D/F#      Em
Fly high and proud
                   Am  Am/G#
And if you should fall
              C/G    D     Em   D
Remember you almost had it all

Remember you almost made it
Ab    Eb/G     Fm

Remember you almost had it all
