[D] [D]
[G] [D] Baby cried the day the circus came [Gbm] to town
Cause [Em] she didn't want [G]
parades just [D] passing by [A] her
[D] So she painted on a smile and took up with [Gbm] some clown
[Em] And she danced [G] without a net up [D] on the wire
[Db] [Bm] I know a lot about her [Gbm] cause you see
[Bm] Baby [E] is an awful [A] lot like me
We [D]
[A] don't cry, [Bm] we keep it [Em] inside
We've learned [G] how to [A] hide our feelings
[D] And [Gbm] [Bm] [Em] if you should fall
[A] Remember [G] you almost [B] had it all
[A] [Em] [D] [Em] [D] Baby saw that when they pulled the [Gbm] big top down
[Em] They left [G] behind her dreams [D] among the litter
And the different kind of love she [A] thought she'd found
It [Em] was nothing [B] more than sawdust [D] and some glitter
[A] [Bm] But baby can't be broken [Gbm] cause you see
She's [Bm] had the finest teacher [A] [G] be
[A] [D] And I taught her
[A]
Don't [Bm] cry, just [Em] keep it inside
