  doorways of jackson square

  in tinsel and tap shoes
 C add 9, G major
  mardi gras beads in her hair
 C add 9, G major
  'n down to the graveyard

 C add 9, G major
  'n we cry in the night
 C add 9, G major
  and it's not the love you feel
 C add 9, G major
  but the fall from the heights
 C add 9, G major
  my personal ledges
 C add 9, G major

 C add 9, G major
  my crepe paper bridges

  draw the curtain
 C add 9, G major
  I'm a ghost on the streets today
 C add 9, G major
  surrounded by eyes
 C add 9, G major
  I feel them peer through me
 C add 9, G major
  and my harlequin disguise
 C add 9, G major
  if it makes you feel better
 C add 9, G major
  come join me a while
 C add 9, G major
  there's love in my open arms
 add 9,  major  major, ,
  there's love in my spirit smiles
