[C]
I sat [G] there alone [C] upon the ferris wheel A pastel [G] colored carriage [C] in the [F] air
[Dm] I thought you'd [A] leave me dangling [Dm] for a minute or two
A silly twist upon a [G] childish dare Below I saw you whispering [C] to another man
Who held the [G] lever that could [F] bring me down
[Dm] It stopped the [A] world from turning [Dm] at your command
It's always [F] something cruel [G] that'll have to drown
And I'm up [C] while the dawn is breaking Even [F] though my heart is aching
I should be [Gbm] drinking a toast to [G] afternoon bread
[F] Instead of [Ab] eat to [C] meet the [G] [Am] end
I [E]
[F] [C] [Bb] [F] [G]
[C]
can hardly [G] hear the music [C] from the carousel
The wind picks up the carriage, [F] starts to sway
[Am] As one by [E] one the lights go [Am] out, it's closing time
[G] I see you take his hand and walk away, [C] walk away
[G] [Am] [E] They [F] [C] [Bb] [F] [G]
[C]
say that [G] you will always [C] be the last to know
They say that all that glitter [F] is not gold
[Am] It's not just [E] that you're never [Am] coming back to me
[G] It's a bitter way that I was told
[C] And I'm up [F] while the dawn is breaking Even [Bb] though my heart is aching
I should be [B] drinking a toast to [C] afternoon bread
Instead of eat to meet [F] the end
I sat [G] there alone [C] upon the ferris wheel A pastel [G] colored carriage [C] in the [F] air
[Dm] I thought you'd [A] leave me dangling [Dm] for a minute or two
A silly twist upon a [G] childish dare Below I saw you whispering [C] to another man
Who held the [G] lever that could [F] bring me down
[Dm] It stopped the [A] world from turning [Dm] at your command
It's always [F] something cruel [G] that'll have to drown
And I'm up [C] while the dawn is breaking Even [F] though my heart is aching
I should be [Gbm] drinking a toast to [G] afternoon bread
