Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[E]I remember when I was[E] a little girl
Our house [A]caught on fire
[A]I'll never forget the look on my fat[E]her's face
As he gathered me [E]up in his arms
And [A]raced through the burning building
onto [A]the pavement
[D]And I stood the[A]re shivering in my pajamas
[E]And watched the whole world go [A]up in flames
And when it was [D]all over
I said to my[A]self
"Is [G]that all there is to a [G]fire?"

[Chorus 1]
Is that all there [E]is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there [E]is my friends,
then let's keep [Am]dancing
Let's [D]break out the [Am]booze
[Cm]and have a b[G]all
If that's [F#]all [C]there is[B]

[Verse 2]
[Am]And when I was 12 years old
[C]My daddy took me to the sircus
[Am]The greatest show on earth
[C]There were clowns and elephants
[Am]and dancing bears
And a [C]beautiful lady in pink tights
flew high a[G]bove our [G]heads
[Am]And as I sat there[C] watching
I had the [Am]feeling that something was missing
[C]I don't know what
But when it was [Am]all over I said to m[C]yself
"Is [G]that all there is to the cir[G]cus?"

[Chorus 2]
Is that all there [E]is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there [E]is my friends,
then let's keep [Am]dancing
Let's [D]break out the [Am]booze
and [Cm]have a [G]ball
If that's [F#]all [C]there is[B]

[Verse 3]
[Am]And then I fell in love[Cm]
With the most wonderful [Am]boy in the world
[Cm]We'd take long walks down by the river[Am]
[Cm]Or just sit for hours
gaz[G]ing into each other's eyes
We were so [G]very much in love
[Am]And then one day h[Cm]e went away
[Am]And I thought I'd die,[Cm] but I didn't
[Am]And when I didn't,
[Cm]I said to myself
[G]"Is that all there is to lov[G]e?"

[Chorus 3]
Is that all there [E]is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there [E]is my friends,

[Verse 4]
then let's keep
[Am]I know what you must be
[Cm]saying to yourselves
"If [Am]that's the way she feels about it,
[Cm]why doesn't she just end it all?"
[Am]Oh no, not m[Cm]e
I'm not ready for [G]that final disappointment
[G]'Cause I know jus[Am]t as well
as I'm standing here talking [Cm]to you
That when that [Am]final moment comes
and I'm breathing my [Cm]last breath,
[G]I'll be saying to [G]myself

[Chorus 4]
Is that all there [E]is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there [E]is my friends,
then let's keep [Am]dancing
Let's [D]break out the [Am]booze
and [Cm]have a [G]ball
If that's [F#]all [C]ther[B]e is
[Em][Em][Em][Em]
