The Fairground

 
Dm7                      Bm 
You said it might be scary 
Dm7                          Bm 
I bought a ticket and I rode it anyway 
Em                    A 
This ride is temporary 
Em                    A 
Like the teardrops on my birthday 
 

  
Dm7                  Bm 
I spent all of my money 
Dm7                   Bm 
And I threw up on my shoes 
Em                    A 
I'll still come back tomorrow 
Em                    A 
Though the chances are I'll lose 
 

  
D                  Bm 
Take my hand, it's time to fly 
              G 
'Cause you're born alone and you die alone 
G 
And in between I'll see you at the 
Dm7       Bm 
fairground 
             Dm7                  Bm 
Kiss me as the merry-go-round goes round 

Em                       A 
  Make sure it's what you wanted 
Em                        A 
  Sometimes the mansion's haunted

             Dm7                  Bm 
Kiss me as the merry-go-round slows down 

Em                     A 
   The fortune teller told me 
Em                       A 
   You're the next big thing, baby
