Owl City – Under The Circus Lights (Guitar)

G      C           Em  D          G              C
 Once upon a summer, a travelling circus came to town

         D         E
From the land down under

G          C           Em
 And I was filled with wonder

     D         C           D         Em
When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

                 C            D           G
Tear through the air with the greatest of ease

G      C         Em     D         G               C
 I got cotton candy and then in a daze, I met her gaze

        D            E     G
And she winked right at me

             C         Em
And my heart pounded madly

     D         C           D         Em
When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

            C              D           G
Capture the crowd with the greatest of ease

A         Em         D         A
She was a light in a dark lullaby

              G           D     A
That girl was raised by a butterfly

             Em           D            C      Bm
I swear when I caught her eye, I could almost fly

    F         C      G
And under the circus lights

            F         C         G
I must have fallen in love that night

G        C              Em
 Lighter than a feather

    D          G            C
But careful as with a heavy heart

              D       E
She seemed to fall forever

G           C                Em
 And then I wondered whether

  D           C           D         Em
I noticed the girl on the flying trapeze

             C             D           G
Blink back a tear with the greatest of ease

                        A
And she took my breath away

       D              F#m
Oh, so grand and graceful

   E               A                       D
Confetti rained as she climbed through the air

       E        F#
Like a homesick angel

A          D             F#m
 She makes heartache painful

E                D           E         F#m
I thought as the girl on the flying trapeze

          D              E           F#m
Melted my heart with the greatest of ease

B         F#m       E     B
What a display of rosé poetry

         E        C#m B
What a majestic menagerie

             F#m          E            D      C#m
I swear when I caught her eye, I could almost fly

    G         D      A
And under the circus lights

            G         Bm        A
I must have fallen in love that night

                 G
Ladies and gentlemen

                                D             A
Welcome to the most spectacular show on Earth

                         A
(And she took my breath away)

      D     F#m
I was so enamored

E                        A
(And she took my breath away)

         D         E
All that glitz and glamor

         F#m             A
(And she took my breath away)

      D     F#m
I was so enamored

    E              D           E         F#m
And that’s how the girl on the flying trapeze

                  D             E           A
Knocked me off my feet with the greatest of ease

    A           D             F#m
And then with a charming sweetness

    E          A                D
She smiled and waved and took a bow

      D             E
For a crowd stunned speechless

A          D          F#m E
 And I was charmed to pieces

         D           E         F#m
When the girl on the flying trapeze

Am           D             E           F#m    F E B
Magically dissolved like a song on the breeze

    A               D              E           B
And simply broke my heart with the greatest of ease

   F#m                    E         B
We shook the floor with a roar of applause

              E            C#m      B
She seemed to drown in the oohs and aahs

        F#m            E
I hung around 'til the clowns

         D       C#m
Tore the big top down

    G           D      A
And soon it was almost dawn

             G              Bm       A
I looked and looked but the girl was gone

             F#m        E          D      C#m
Deep down, I felt kinda blue for a day or two

     G          D       A
Then clear as a bell, I knew

             G            Bm     A
I would run away with the circus too
