Dm F C I could have run away with a carnival girl Dm F C If were not for my foolish pride Dm F C Because under the lights of the Ferris wheel Dm F C She promised me every prize
C Am G Lalalalaaaa lalalalaaaaa [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-martin-harley-band/166738.html ] Am C G There’s not a pretty penny in my old blue jeans Am C G I never seem to say quite what I mean Am C Well I drink too much and I think too much G F Am G Am And I know it sounds absurd but I wouldn’t change for the world Am G Am I wouldn’t change for the world
Well I sang for my supper and I sang for my soul I sang out across the bay And I’ve been waiting here for my ship to come in I know it’ll be here some day Some day soon lalalalaaaaa

Could have been a carpenter and I could have been a thief But then again its so hard to say Cause I sit under the light of the morning sun and I watch the carnival roll away Lalala life lalala life
