[Verse]
G7I remember when I was a very little girl
Our house cC7aught on fire
I'll never forget the look on my fG7ather's face
As he gatC7hered me up in his arms
And rCaced through the burning building onto the pavement
FAnd I stood there Dshivering in my pajamas
AndG7 watched the whole Cworld go up in flames
And when it was allF over I Csaid to myself
A#"Is that all there is to a Cfire?"
[Chorus]
CIs that all there isG7?
G7Is that all there is?
G7If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep Cm7dancing
Let's F7break out the Cm7booze andD#m7 have a A#ball
If that's A7all D#7 there D7is
[Verse]
And Cmwhen I was 12 years old
My dD#addy took me to the circus,
The Cmgreatest show on D#earth
There were Cmclowns and elephants, danciD#ng bears
And a A#beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads
CmAs I sat there wD#atching
I had the Cmfeeling that something was mD#issing
I don't know wCmhat
When it was all over I D#said to myself
A#"Is that all there is to the circus?"
[Chorus]
Is that all there iG7s?
G7Is that all there is?
G7If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep Cm7dancing
Let's F7break out the Cm7booze andD#m7 have a A#ball
If that's A7all D#7 therD7e is
[Verse]
AndCm then I fell in D#love
With the Cmmost wonderful boy in the worlD#d
We'd take long walks down by the riveCmr
Or just sit forD# hours gazing into eacA#h other's eyes
We were so very much in love Cm
Then one day he wenD#t away
CmAnd I thought I'd die, D#but I didn't
CmAnd when I didn't, D#I said to myself
A#"Is that all there is to love?"
[Coda]
Is that all there iG7s?
G7Is that all there is?
G7If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep.Cm7...
[Verse]
CmI know what you must be sD#aying to yourselves
"CmIf that's the way she feels about it,D# why doesn't she just end it all?"
CmOh, no. D#Not me
I'm not ready for that A#final disappointment
CmCause I know just as well as I'm sD#tanding here talking to you
ACmnd when that final moment comes and I'm D#breathing my last breath,
A#I'll be saying to myself
[Chorus]
Is that all there iG7s?
G7Is that all there is?
G7If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep Cm7dancing
Let's F7break out the Cm7booze andD#m7 have a A#ball
If that's A7all D#7 therD7e is
