[Em]Over the mountains,
and [C]under the sky
Riding [Em]dirty gray horses,
go [C]you and [Em]I.
Mating with chance,
[C]copulating with mirth
[Am]The sad-glad paymasters (for
[D]what [C]it's worth).
[D]The ice-cream castles are
[A]refrigerated;
The super[D]-marketeers[A]
are on parade.
There's [B]a golden handshake
hanging round [F#m]your neck,
As you light your ci[B]garette
[Em]on the b[A]urning d[B]eck.
[Bm]And you [A]balance [B]your world
on the [A]tip of [B]your nose
Like [A]a SeaLion with a[B] ball, at the carnival.

[Verse 2]
You wear [Em]a shiny skin and [C]a funny hat
The Almighty [Em]Animal Trainer
[B]lets [C]it go at that.
You bark [Em]ever-so-slightly at
at [B]at the [C]Trainer's gun,
With you [Am]whiskers melting
in [D]the noon-day sun.

[C]You[D] flip and you[A] flo[D]p under

Where the long-legged ring-mistress
starts starts starts and stops.
But you [B]know, after all,
the act is [F#m]wearing thin
As the crowd grows un[Em]easy
and the boos be[B]gin.
[Bm]But you [A]balance [B]your world
on the [A]tip of [B]your nose
You're [A]a SeaLion with a
[B]ball at the [A]carnival.

[Em]of pride upon our fixe[C]d grins
For there [Em]is no business
like [C]the show we're in.
[Em]There is no reason,
no [C]rhyme, no right
[Am]To leave [A]the cir[Am]cus 'til
[D]we've said good-night.
[C]The [A]The same performance,
[D]in [A]the same old way;
It's the same old story [D]to this [A]Passion Play.
So [B]we'll shoot the moon,
and hope to call [F#m]the tune
And make no pin [E]cushion
[Em]of this big ball[Bm]oon.
[B]Look how[Bm] we bala[A]nce the [B]world
on the [A]tips of [B]our noses,
