Hooplas Involving Circus Tricks

[Intro]
E C#m (4x)


[Verse 1]

      E                        C#m
It's crowded and we're bored
       E                          C#m
The chamber maid, she snores
                       B                               A
The drummer's gone to tune up all her toms
              B                                        A
I laid my head down and now my wallet is gone



[Chorus 1]

E
Hooplas involving circus tricks
    B
At addresses way out in the sticks
       A
The pixies in tight green little skirts
       E
say it's so much better now that is hurts
       E
The tides that pull you down in the river
B
She touched my knee and that made me quiver
A
Winks with her eye, 3.14 (pi)
            E
Is there anyone who knows the whole thing?


[Break 1]
E C#m (2x)
B A (2x)


[Verse 2]

     E                   C#m
It's loaded with references
              E                               C#m
when the mime speaks about the biz
                      B                                  A
We asked him for a glass that might be clean
                  B                                 A
But he's too busy posing for fashion 'zines



[Chorus 2]

E
Hooplas involving circus tricks
     B
At addresses way out in the sticks
       A
The pixies in tight green little skirts
       E
say it's so much better now that is hurts
       E
The tides that pull you down in the river
B
She touched my knee and that made me quiver
A
Winks with her eye, 3.14 (pi)
             E
Is there anyone who knows the whole thing?

            E
Is there anyone, is there anyone?
