Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go

Em    C             G             Em        C G
Will I catch up to love, I could never tell, I know

Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I

Feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

Come, come one, come all, you must be this tall

 C     G  Em     C        G
To ride this ride at the carnival

Em   C         G Em   C                  G  Em
Oh, come take my hand, and run through playland

So high, too high at the carnival
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em C             G    Em   C            G  Em       C  G
And it's all fun and games, 'til somebody falls in love

              Em                    C                       G

This horse is too slow, we're always this close

C      G Em    C          G
Almost, almost, we're a freakshow

Em    C           G    Em         C          G  Em
Right, right when I'm near, it's like you disappear

  C        G  Em    C                      G    Em
Where'd you go, Mister Houdini, you're a freakshow

[Bridge]
 Em        D        C
Why did you steal my cotton candy heart

Em           D        C
You threw it in this damn coin slot

Em         D          C
And now I'm stuck, I'm stuck

Em       D     C
Riding, riding, riding
