Em5

say that life's a carrousel,

D/F#

spinning fast you've got to ride it well.

G

The world if full of kings and queens who

D/A

blind your eyes then steal your dreams.

Em5

It's heaven and hell.

D/F#

Oh well .

Em5

And they'll tell you that black is really white,

D/F#

the moon is just the sun at night;

G

And when you walk in golden halls, you

D/A

get to keep the gold that falls.

Em5

It's heaven and hell.

D/F#

No,no

Em5

Fool,fool

D/F# G

You got to bleed for the dancer.

D/A Em5

Fool,fool

D/F# G

Look for the answer.

D/A Em5

Fool,fool,fool.
