____Intro:
A
____Verse: 1
A E A I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel A D a pastel colored carriage in the air Bm F#7 Bm I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while Bm Bm7 E a silly twist upon a childish dare
____Verse: 2
A E A Below I saw you whispering to another man A D who held the lever that could bring me down Bm F#7 Bm he'd stop the world from turning at your command Bm Bm7 E it's always something cruel that laughter drowns
____Chorus:
E A and I'm up while the dawn is breaking A7 D even though my heart is aching
D#dim7
I should be drinking a toast
E to absent friends Fdim7 A E instead of these comedians
F#m C#7 D A G D/F# E A
____Verse: 3
A E A I can hardly hear the music from the carousel A D the wind picks up, the carriage starts sway F#m C# F#m as one by one the lights go out it's closing time E A I see you take his hand and walk away, walk away
E F#m C#7 D A G D/F# E A
____Verse: 4
A E A They say that you will always be the last to know A D they say that all that glitters is not gold F#m C# F#m it's not just that you're never coming back to me E it's the bitter way that I was told
____Chorus:
A D and I'm up while the dawn is breaking D7 G even though my heart is aching
G#dim7
I should be drinking a toast
A to absent friends A7 D instead of these comedians
