Little man with his eyes on fire
And his smile so bright
In his hands are the toys you gave
That fill his heart with delight
In a ring stands a circus clown
Holding up a light
What you see and what you hear
Will last you the rest of your life
[2
] It's sad, so sad
There aint no easy way round
[2
] It's sad, so sad
in7
All your friends gather round
'Cause the circus left town
Little man with his heart so pure
And his love so fine
Stick with me and I'll ride with you
Till the end of the line
Hold my hand and I'll walk with you
Through the darkest night
When I smile I'll be thinking of you
And everything will be alright
The picking technique is 4 bar repeating cycle which for the most part
concentrates on the middle 4 strings, except when playing G#7. Each
vertical line represents one bar, each bar has 2 beats which are clearly
marked by the thumb and middle finger. The index finger only appears on
half beats.
Key: t = thumb
i = index finger
m = middle finger
