[Intro] | G | G | | G Bm7 | Em7 | 2x [Verse 1]
G         Bm7
 Pretty Elaina

 Em7
My fair lady

G                B7        Em7
 She walked the high wire back in the 80's

G              Bm7
 Feathers and sequins

            Em7          C
She shined like a chandelier

          G                Bm7
Hanging from the top tent rafters

           Em7
Till the spotlight disappeared
[Instrumental] | G Bm7 | Em7 | [Verse 2]
 G         Bm7
Harlan Giovanni

  Em7
What a sight to see

     G                  B7           Em7
The way he earned her trust was on a 20-foot trapeze

G             Bm7            Em7              C
 She fell so hard because he always let her fly

         G                 B7
Till he left her heart suspended

      Em7
In a cotton candy sky

C                       Cm
 She still don't know why
[Chorus]
        Em      G
Every show must еnd

       Em            G
Every circus leaves town

 Em                 D
You don't know thе magic's gone

   Csus2
Until the lights go down

           Em           G
Now she's back in Nacogdoches

       Em               G
And I hear she's doing well

    Em           G               C                G
She only misses Harlan when she hears a carousel
[Instrumental] | G Bm7 | Em7 | 2x [Verse 3]
G         Bm7
 Pretty Elaina

 Em7
Made herself a nest

     G               B7
Her sequins and her secrets

       Em7
Buried in her cedar chest

G         Bm7             Em7              C
 No one around here knows about her other life

        G              B7         Em7
Johnny Davis went and made her a mama and a wife

C                    Cm
 And maybe that's alright
[Chorus]
               Em      G
'Cause every show must end

       Em            G
Every circus leaves town

 Em                 D
You don't know thе magic's gone

   Csus2
Until the lights go down

           Em           G
Now she's back in Nacogdoches

       Em               G
And I hear she's doing well

    Em           G               C                G
She only misses Harlan when she hears a carousel
[Instrumental] | Em G | Em G | Em D | Csus2 | [Bridge]
G              Bm7
 Smith County Fair

 Em7
Mid-September

G               Bm7
 She walks the midway

      Em7              C
And smiles when she remembers
[Chorus]
        Em      G
Every show must end

       Em            G
Every circus leaves town

   Em              D
I didn't know the magic left

     Csus2
Till all the lights went down

         Em           G
Now I'm back in Nacogdoches

        Em             G
And I swear I'm doing well

  Em            G             C              G
I only miss my Harlan when I hear a carousel

  Em            G             C                G
I only miss my Harlan when I hear the carousel
