to get home Billy?

F
F
began to grow dim
Bb
Bb
My friends had all left,
F
F
I couldn't find them
Dm
Dm
I didn't mind at this time
C
C
cause I didn't think
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
that the rides would stop and the lights
would quit blinking
or the booths where the men who
C
C
talked through their noses
Verse 3
Bb
Bb
Would seal them selves tight , like a
Dm
Dm
rose when it closes
I didn't think that the color
C
C
that was all air
Bb
Bb
could disappear so fast and leave
Dm
Dm
nothing there
I never dreamed that the music
C
C
of the calliope
Bb
Bb
could change to the noise of of
Dm
Dm
men takin the street
C
C
It all turned so strange , it all went so quick
Bb
Bb
The only friend left was the
Dm
Dm
sound of a cricket
C
C
With my fantasy gone it all seems so real
Bb
Bb
I was left there to feel , what
Dm
Dm
I didn't want to feel
No one wants to see when it
C
C
comes to the end
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
The still ferris wheel when it quits spinning

When the midway doses and leaves

nothing but silence

Verse 5
Thats when I got scared And
C
C
thought I was lost
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
Thats when I heard the sword
swallowercough
C
C
I listened like a rabbit and stopped
in a freeze
Bb
Bb
That's when I heard a
Dm
Dm
fat man sneeze
There was a light in a trailer
C
C
I crept to the door
Bb
Bb
And I pressed my ear close
Dm
Dm
and I tried to hear more
I heard many voices but
C
C
they weren't the kind
Bb
Bb
That I'd heard in my life
Dm
Dm
or any other time
at the back of my coat there
C
C
blew a cold wind
Bb
Bb
That's when the Siamese
Dm
Dm
twins took me in
C
C
the people inside I couldn't believe
Bb
Bb
They wer en't like the kind
Dm
Dm
that you see in the street
They brushed off my hat
C
C
and dusted my coat
Bb
Bb
And offered me milk that
Dm
Dm
came from a goat
C
C
I liked em at once , They treated me good
Bb
Bb
So I told em my story like I
A
A
thought I should

Verse 7
I told em how different that
C
C
the midway feels
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
When the lights go out on the ferris wheel
and I said to him how you must
C
C
feel all alone
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
when the music quits to call it your home
Verse 8
Dm
Dm
C
C
The tattooed man looked at me in the face
Bb
Bb
And said we couldn't feel
Dm
Dm
right in any other place
C
C
We will be here til the day we die
Bb
Bb
when I understand I had a
Dm
Dm
tear in my eye
I knew this was true
C
C
and though it seemed lonely
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
It was made for them and them only
C
C
I left them there holding bak the tears
Bb
Bb
And told them I had hoped that I'd
Dm
Dm
see them next year
They laughed and said you
C
C
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
can bet on that
They all gathered around the
C

trailer house steps
Bb
Bb
A
A
and no one was counting any ones bets

Dm
Dm
Back down the dark midway
C
C
I imagined the lights
Bb

Shining like torches
Dm
Dm
only much more bright
C
C
A little I walked than i did before
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
A little older I walked But I knew
much more
C
C
Maybe next year if any older I look
Bb
Bb
I'll run away from home and become
Dm
Dm
the fat mans cook
C
C
The world is so strange my mother dear
Bb
Bb
It's really a wonder how
Dm
Dm
we all got here
C
C
Bb
Bb
Once i thought I was in my place when I was
Dm
Dm
just a babe lookin in your face
But now for some reason people
C
C
have given me doubt
Bb
Bb
It seems some are locked in and
Dm
Dm
some are locked out
Verse 11
Dm
Dm
The world is so strange I
C
C
can't comprehend
Bb
Bb
The one who wants freedom
Dm
Dm
are the very ones locked in
and why does it seem that
C
C
ones who don't care
Bb
Bb
Breathe in without gratitude
Dm
Dm
and the wild free air
C
C
My innocence has left by the same
door it came
Bb
Bb
Dm
Dm
and never again will i ever be the same
C

But I'll never forget as long as I live
Bb

To be grateful to stranglers who

ain't afraid to give
