[Intro]
Bm A G F#
[Verse 1]
[BARNUM]
Bm
Right here, right now
A
I'll put the offer out
G
I don't wanna chase you down
F#
But I know you see it
Bm
You run with me
A
And I can cut you free
G
Out of the treachery of
F#
all you keep in
G
So trade that typical
D
For something colorful
A Bm A
And if it's crazy live a little crazy
G
You can play it sensible
D
B king of conventional
E7 F#7
Or you can risk it all and see
[Chorus]
[BARNUM]
G D
Don't you wanna get away
A Bm
From the same old part you gotta play
G D A
'Cause I got what you need to come with me and take the ride
Bm A
It'll take you to the other side
G
'Cause you can do like you do
D
Or you can do like me
A Bm
Stay in the cage or you finally take the key
G D A
Oh! Damn! suddenly you're free to fly
F#
It'll take you to the other side
[Verse 2]
[PHILLIP]
Bm
Okay, my friend
A
You wanna cut me in
G
Well I hate to tell you,
F#
But it just won't happen
Bm
So thanks, but no
A
I think I'm good to go
G
'Cause I quite enjoy the life
F#
You say I'm trapped in
G
Now I admire you
D
And that whole show you do
A
You're onto something
Bm A
Really, it's something
G
But I live among the swells
D
And we don't pick up peanut shells
E7 F#7
I'll have to leave that up to you
[Chorus]
[PHILLIP]
G D
Don't you know that I'm okay
A Bm
With this uptown part I get to play
G D A
'Cause I've got what I need and I don't wanna take the ride
Bm A
Don't need to see the other side
G
So go and do like you do
D
I'm good to do like me
A Bm
Ain't in a cage so I don't need to take the key
G D A
Oh! Damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine?
F#
I don't need to see the other side
[Bridge]
[BARNUM]
G D
Is this really how you like to spend your days?
A Bm A
Whiskey and misery and parties and plays
[PHILLIP]
G
If I were mixed up with you
D
I'd be the talk of the town
A
Disgraced and disowned
F#
Another one of the clowns
[BARNUM]
G
But you would finally live a little
D
Finally laugh a little
A Bm A
Just let me give you the freedom to dream
G
And it'll wake you up, and cure your aching
E7
Take your walls and start 'em breaking
G
Now that's a deal that seems worth taking
Em6 F#
But I guess I'll leave that up to you
[PHILLIP]
Bm
Well it's intriguing, but to go would cost me greatly
Bm
So what percentage of the show would I be taking?
[BARNUM]
Em
Fair enough, you'd want a piece of all the action
Bm
I'd give you seven, we could shake and make it happen.
[PHILLIP]
F#
I wasn't born this morning
Eighteen would be just fine
[BARNUM]
G
Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on a dime?
[PHILLIP]
F#
Fifteen
[BARNUM]
N.C.
I'd do eight
[PHILLIP]
G
Twelve
[BARNUM]
N.C.
Maybe nine
[PHILLIP]
F#
Ten
[Chorus]
BARNUM & [PHILLIP]
G D
Don't you wanna get away
A Bm
To a whole new part you're gonna play
G D A
'Cause I got what you need to come with me and take the ride
Bm A
To the other side
G
So we can do like I do
D
So we can do like me
A Bm
Forget the cage 'cause we know how to make the key
G D A
Oh! Damn! Suddenly we're free to fly
Bm
We're going to the other side
[BARNUM]
G D
So we can do like I do!
[PHILLIP]
N.C.
To the other side
(BARNUM]
A Bm
So we can do like me
[PHILLIP]
N.C.
We're going to the other side
[BARNUM]
G D
'Cause if you do you're going
[BARNUM] & [PHILLIP]
A
To the other side
F# N.C.
We're going to the other side
