A beautiful song by Stephen Schwartz.
Intro: [Dm] [Cm] [G#] [Fm]
[C] [F] [C] [F] [A]
[Dm] [G]
I'd like to be a lion tamer,
[C] [F]
Sequins and tights and silk top hats.
[Dm] [G]
I know I could be a lion tamer,
[C] [F]
I've always gotten along with cats.
[Dm] [Gm]
I'd have a whip but never use it,
[Cm] [Fm]
I'd simply hold it in my hand.
[C] [F]
I'd like to be a lion tamer.
[C] [F]
If I could be a lion tamer
[C] [F] [C] [F]
I would be someone grand.
[C] [F] [A]
[Dm] [G]
I couldn't be a ballerina,
[C] [F]
I never could stand on my toes.
[Dm] [G]
I couldn't be a Spanish dancer,
[C] [F]
I'd look ridiculous with a rose.
[Dm] [Gm]
But everyone has a special calling,
[Cm] [Fm]
Something that only he can do.
[C] [F]
I could be such a lion tamer,
[C] [F]
If I could be lion tamer,
[C] [F] [C] [F]
I would be special, too.
[C] [A] [Bm7]
[Em]
I could begin with baby leopards,
[Em] [C]
Move on to tiger cubs and then,
[F] [D#]
After I learned to handle lions,
[Bm] [D] [C] [Em] [A]
Maybe I could work up to men.
[Dm] [G]
I never wanted fancy mansions,
[C] [F]
Butlers and footmen liveried.
[Dm] [G]
I never wanted lots of money,
[C] [F]
Money can't buy what you really need.
[Dm] [Gm]
I never prayed for any favors,
[Cm] [Fm]
But here I am on knobby knee.
[C] [F]
Please let me be a lion tamer.
[C] [F]
If I could be a lion tamer,
[C] [F] [C] [F] [Em] [F] [Em] [Dm] [G] [C] [F]
Wouldn't he have to… finally… notice me?
[C] [F] [C]
