[Verse 1]
Am
Summer day

Am                                       F
Bobby and this girl would wake up every summer day

     C
This boy and girl had nothing, they were runaways

                               Am         G
So in love that now all they wanted was pain and so it came

            Am
Never had a silver spoon present in the past

                  F
Now at last, the spoon is present and so the boy wet it

                       C
Told her bring him a slab, a cotton swab, and a match

                              G
And told her one day they’ll fly across the world and have a wedding

                     Am
Like “baby I have a plan, come with me to this place

                  F
Baby give me your hand, now flip it give me a vein

                   C
Baby take off your belt, we’ll use it as a restraint”

                            G
She sees that it starts to melt, he reaches inside a case

                       Am
Fills the needle with food, flicks the needle with haste

                     F
Brings the needle to her, she isn’t right in the face

                            C
The boy can tell that she’s scared, he says “I love you, okay?”

                                G
Then shoves it into her arm and says “how the fuck does that taste baby?!”
[Hook]
Am
Merry, merry, merry go round

         F
I don’t want to see you down

         C
I don’t want to see you frown

             Am  G
Merry go round...

Am
Merry, merry, merry go round

         F
I don’t want to see you down

        C
I don’t want to see you frown

         Am              G
Merry, merry, merry go round
[Verse 2]
Am
Her dress drops, her head drops

                   F
Swiggin’ out of a whiskey bottle, he just watches

                C
But he was not Bobby, see Bobby had joined the army

                         G
Been gone for a couple months now she’s messin with everybody

                  Am
Everyone of the dealers, everyone hears her squealing

                            F
Trading pussy for product, she did anything for that feeling

                             F                         Em
But then she started that feeling, early morning she’s kneelin’

                                                     G
In front of the toilet look at her belly there’s no concealing

                        Am
That she’s expecting a child
This woman is living foul
                     F
She’s only 20 years old
And hardly can even smile
                     C
Ultrasound shows a baby that’s barely over a pound

                         G
Sold everything in her house just trying to score an ounce

                    Am
News of her baby’s father was that he died in the war

                     F
Now that syringe is all that keeps her alive anymore

                 C
No mattress, so her and her child dyin’ on the floor

                        G
As a letter’s at the door reading:
“I’ll be home tomorrow. love, Bobby” [Hook]
Am
Merry, merry, merry go round

         F
I don’t want to see you down

         C
I don’t want to see you frown

             Am  G
Merry go round...

Am
Merry, merry, merry go round

         F
I don’t want to see you down

        C
I don’t want to see you frown

         Am              G
Merry, merry, merry go round
[Verse 3]
Am
Knockin’ at the door but doesn’t get an answer

F
Bobby’s nervous, his heart starts to beat faster

C
He hasn’t talked to his girl in so long

              Am                                                        G
She sold his phone for a hit, damn how he wish that he could hear her laughter

Am
But his drug hit her like a cancer

F                                      C
And he forgot ‘cause he had left and cleaned his act up

                                   Am
Passenger seat in his Acura got a picture of ‘em kissing

                     G
Under the words "happily ever after”

Am
He walks into the house, it’s a fuckin’ disaster

 F
Every step he takes his shoe crushes a capsule

C
Holds his breath, he knows what he smells isn’t natural

Am                    G
Looks down, it’s the body of the queen of his castle

Am
“Baby please, baby please!!!"

F
"Wake up!!!”

                                          C
He screams on his knees and he sees her hands around her stomach
Inside was a child
      Am
And realizes it was his…
*gun cock* *gun shot*
Am
Summer day,

                                F
An entire family died on that summer day

                                      C
‘cause a facade made a girl give her love away

                                            Am
But those were Bobby’s consequences that he had to pay

G
Love is pain
[Hook]

         C
I don’t want to see you frown

             Am  G

Am
Merry, merry, merry go round

         F
I don’t want to see you down

        C
I don’t want to see you frown

Merry, merry, merry go round
