E B C#m B G# A [Verse 1] E B C#m It was the first day of summer and the word came down B G# A And then the crowd started gathering on the edge of the town E B C#m To hear the band start kicking on the count of four B G# A And then the stranger with a promise of a miracle cure E B C#m He stood slender like a switch, cane, jet-black hair B G# A And stared deep into the frailty of everyone there E B C#m Until a smile came wide across his face and so B G# A Began the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show. [Instrumental] (x2) E B C#m B G# A [Verse 2] E B C#m He pulled a bottle from his pocket, said "I bring you good news B G# A "I got an end to all your worries and your hurt and them blues E B C#m So if your hair started thinning and your joints get bad B G# A Yeah it'll take away the pain you never knew that you had. E B C#m Yeah it'll make you good-looking it'll make you feel thin B G# A And cures every one of the seven of the deadliest sins" E B C#m And then the money started flying and the crowd below B G# A It was the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show [Chorus] E B C#m It was the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show B G# A It was the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show [Verse 3] E B C#m Well it takes a little businessman it ain't no crime B G# A To fool enough of the people for enough of their time E B C#m And it's your own damn problem if you're paying out for B G# A A little back-ditch water and little else more E B C#m And when the money's being counted and the stage comes down B G# A We're out looking for the suckers of another dumb town E B C#m And sing a prayer for every innocent who can't say no B G# A To the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show [Chorus] E B C#m It was the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show B G# A I said "hey, good-looking, now come on, let's go" E B C#m It was the smoke and the mirrors of the medicine show
