E
Dressed up like the clown again
F#                      G#m  F#
Sad face painted on your skin
E
Obsessing over last year's show
F#                           G#m  F#
You just can't seem to let it go
     E                               F#
Your rabbit stuck inside the hat was not the people's favorite act
         G#m                     B
And your suicidal acrobat was hoping that the trapeze would snap

[Chorus]
B                G#m
Through rings of fire
         F#
Backward somersault
                     E
But all they want to see is the human cannonball
B                      G#m
The tightrope that you walk
                     F#
They want to see you fall
                     E
You're trying to compete with the human cannonball

[Verse 2]
E                                F#                               G#m      F#
Caught up in this conny life with hopes of bringing down the house tonight, tonight
E
You swallowed all the swords again
F#                              G#m  F#
Pushed the handles down onto your chin
           E
There's no applause for a safety net
   F#
The crowd won't roar until it's life or death
      G#m
So just give them a show they won't forget
    B
I'm watching as the lion eats your head

[Chorus]

B                G#m
Through rings of fire
         F#
Backward somersault
                     E
But all they want to see is the human cannonball
B                      G#m
The tightrope that you walk
                     F#
They want to see you fall
                     E          B
You're trying to compete with the human cannonball
B
The human cannonball
B
Da da da

[Chorus]

B                G#m
Through rings of fire
         F#
Backward somersault
                     E
But all they want to see is the human cannonball
B                      G#m
The tightrope that you walk
                     F#
They want to see you fall
                     E
You're trying to compete with the human cannonball
E
The human cannonball

[Outro]
                         B
You're dressed up like a clown
                     G#m
They want to see you fall
                      F#
You give them all you got
                         E
But they still want some more
N.C.
They wanna see you fall
N.C.
Tell me are you gonna fall
