[Intro]
F#m E D C#
[Verse 1]
[BARNUM]
F#m
Right here, right now
E
I'll put the offer out
D
I don't wanna chase you down
C#
But I know you see it
F#m
You run with me
E
And I can cut you free
D
Out of the treachery of
C#
all you keep in
D
So trade that typical
A
For something colorful
E F#m E
And if it's crazy live a little crazy
D
You can play it sensible
A
F# king of conventional
B7 C#7
Or you can risk it all and see
[Chorus]
[BARNUM]
D A
Don't you wanna get away
E F#m
From the same old part you gotta play
D A E
'Cause I got what you need to come with me and take the ride
F#m E
It'll take you to the other side
D
'Cause you can do like you do
A
Or you can do like me
E F#m
Stay in the cage or you finally take the key
D A E
Oh! Damn! suddenly you're free to fly
C#
It'll take you to the other side
[Verse 2]
[PHILLIP]
F#m
Okay, my friend
E
You wanna cut me in
D
Well I hate to tell you,
C#
But it just won't happen
F#m
So thanks, but no
E
I think I'm good to go
D
'Cause I quite enjoy the life
C#
You say I'm trapped in
D
Now I admire you
A
And that whole show you do
E
You're onto something
F#m E
Really, it's something
D
But I live among the swells
A
And we don't pick up peanut shells
B7 C#7
I'll have to leave that up to you
[Chorus]
[PHILLIP]
D A
Don't you know that I'm okay
E F#m
With this uptown part I get to play
D A E
'Cause I've got what I need and I don't wanna take the ride
F#m E
Don't need to see the other side
D
So go and do like you do
A
I'm good to do like me
E F#m
Ain't in a cage so I don't need to take the key
D A E
Oh! Damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine?
C#
I don't need to see the other side
[Bridge]
[BARNUM]
D A
Is this really how you like to spend your days?
E F#m E
Whiskey and misery and parties and plays
[PHILLIP]
D
If I were mixed up with you
A
I'd be the talk of the town
E
Disgraced and disowned
C#
Another one of the clowns
[BARNUM]
D
But you would finally live a little
A
Finally laugh a little
E F#m E
Just let me give you the freedom to dream
D
And it'll wake you up, and cure your aching
B7
Take your walls and start 'em breaking
D
Now that's a deal that seems worth taking
Bm6 C#
But I guess I'll leave that up to you
[PHILLIP]
F#m
Well it's intriguing, but to go would cost me greatly
F#m
So what percentage of the show would I be taking?
[BARNUM]
Bm
Fair enough, you'd want a piece of all the action
F#m
I'd give you seven, we could shake and make it happen.
[PHILLIP]
C#
I wasn't born this morning
Eighteen would be just fine
[BARNUM]
D
Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on a dime?
[PHILLIP]
C#
Fifteen
[BARNUM]
N.C.
I'd do eight
[PHILLIP]
D
Twelve
[BARNUM]
N.C.
Maybe nine
[PHILLIP]
C#
Ten
[Chorus]
BARNUM & [PHILLIP]
D A
Don't you wanna get away
E F#m
To a whole new part you're gonna play
D A E
'Cause I got what you need to come with me and take the ride
F#m E
To the other side
D
So we can do like I do
A
So we can do like me
E F#m
Forget the cage 'cause we know how to make the key
D A E
Oh! Damn! Suddenly we're free to fly
F#m
We're going to the other side
[BARNUM]
D A
So we can do like I do!
[PHILLIP]
N.C.
To the other side
(BARNUM]
E F#m
So we can do like me
[PHILLIP]
N.C.
We're going to the other side
[BARNUM]
D A
'Cause if you do you're going
[BARNUM] & [PHILLIP]
E
To the other side
C# N.C.
We're going to the other side
