Tiger Lillies Fairgound chords
Start Jamming...
[Am] Lost my heart in the fairground, sad clown tried to [E] smile.
How quickly goes our innocence, so swiftly we're [Am] defiled.
Lost my heart in the fairground, when I saw the cheapest [E] rides.
The ones the crowds queued for, sad clowns [Am] stand aside.
[Bm] The vulgar young prostitutes, they always win the day.
[E] [Bm] Our innocence, our innocence, so swiftly swept away.
[E] [Am] Lost my heart in the fairground, when I saw that it was [E] crap.
Well marketed and packaged, which has them coming [Am] back.
[Bm]
How quickly we'd swallow the bitterest pills.
The neon whores and sycophants, who peddle cheaper thrills.
[E] [Am] How quickly fairground barkers, they learn [E] to shout.
The quick and easy buck is what it's all [Am] about.
Lost my heart in the fairground, sad clown tried [E] to smile.
How quickly goes our innocence, so swiftly we're [A] defiled.
