And my part in the story...

Dbmaj7
I read all of the children’s fortunes...

Fm
I felt their hopes, thoughs, drеams,

Fm                                                           Dbmaj7
knowing they would board the doomed rollеr coaster and could tell them nothing

Fm
I even suggested they ride the Cyclone.

Fm       Eb            Ab Bb                                         Csus4  Dm7 C Fm
On Monday, September 14th, they would board the Cyclone roller coaster at 6:17pm

F#m
At 6:19 this same roller coaster’s front axle would break

F#m
causing it to derail at the apex of the loop-de-loop,

C#
hurtling the children to their deaths

                B
And then you’re sailing through space

               Bmaj7
You don’t know up from down

        B7
And you feel a little strange

     G#m7
From all that spinning ‘round

    Baug
And everything you loved

    B
And everything you dreamed

    C#7
And everything you feared

    Em
And everything that seemed so

Em
Oh so terrifying

     B                 C#7
It’s far behind on the ground

         B
Like our far from the city

                         C#7
Little itty bitty pretty hometown

       B                    C#7
Just a teeny tiny dot, on a wee blue ball

          Em
And we’ve all been spinning...

Em  D    G   A
All been spinning

B
Round and Round and Round and

C#
Round and Round

C#
Round and Round and

G#
Round and Round and Round

B
and Round and Round

C#m
Empty streets of empty shops

G#
shuttered rows of mom and pops

B                             F#
bow down to the mega shopping mall

    C#m
The smart ones all packed up and went

    G#
why stay if you can’t pay the rent

B                                F#
We will never leave this town at all

           A
Drink some brew, join the choir

          E
Build yourself a funeral pyre

 G#7
Uranium our dead end dive

      G#7
We’ll never leave this town alive

G#7              G#    F#   B    G# C#m G#
No we will never leave this town at all!

Earth is sky and sky is ground
