The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze CAPO 2 G C Once I was happy, but now I'm forlorn D G Like an old coat that is tattered and torn; C Left on this world to fret and to mourn, D G Betrayed by a maid barely out of her teens. Bridge; Em B7 The girl that I loved she was handsome; Em B7 I tried all I knew her to please Em B7 But I could not please her one quarter so well E7 A7 D7 As the man upon the trapeze. Chorus; He'd fly through the air with the greatest of ease, That daring young man on the flying trapeze. His movements were graceful, all girls he could please And my love he stolen away. Verse This young man by name was Signor Bona Slang, Tall, big and handsome, as well made as Chang. Where'er he appeared the hall loudly rang With ovation from all people there. Bridge; He'd smile from the bar on the people below And one night he smiled on my love. She wink'd back at him and she shouted "Bravo," As he hung by his nose up above. Verse Her father and mother were both on my side And very hard tried to make her my bride; Her father he sighed, and her mother she cried, To see her throw herself away. Bridge; 'But it was all no avail, she went there every night, And would throw him bouquets on the stage, Which caused him to meet her; how he ran me down, To tell you would take a whole fucking page. Chorus Verse One night I as usual went to her dear home, Found there her father and mother alone. I asked for my love, and soon they made known, To my horror that she'd run away. Bridge; She'd packed up her box and eloped in the night With him, with the greatest of ease; From two stories high he had lowered her down To the ground on his flying trapeze. Chorus Verse Some months after this I went to the Circus Hall; Was greatly surprised to see there on the wall A bill in red letters, which did my heart gall, That she was appearing with him. Bridge; He'd taught her gymnastics and dressed her in tights, To help him live a life of ease, As I stood there staring up into the lights, And she flew on that flying trapeze. Verse; She'd fly through the air with the greatest of ease, You'd think her the man young man on the flying trapeze. Her movements were graceful, all girls she could please, And that was the end of my love. Chorus
