Getting crazy on the ^Dmwaltzers, ^Fbut it's the life that I ^Cchoose ^GSing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a ^Dmtorture tatoo

And I've been ^Dmriding on a ghost train ^F ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------3/5-5---------------- ---------------------------------------2/5-5^6-------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

where the cars they ^Cscream and slam ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------5-5---5--------------- --------------------------------------5-5---5^6------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

^GAnd I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd ^Dmalways tell you where I am In a ^Dmscreaming ring of faces ^F ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------3/5-5------------------------- ------------------------------2/5-5^6----------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

I see her standing in the ^Clight ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------9(10)-9-7----7------------- -------------------------------------------10--------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

said let it rock and let it ^Croll ------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------------------------9/7---9/7---9------------ ----------------------------------10/8--10/8--10------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

^GI had the one arm bandit fever was an arrow through my ^Dmheart and my soul

And the big wheels keep on ^Bbturning ^C ------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------------------------------6---6---6^8-8------ -------------------------------------5-7---7---------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

neon ^Fburning , up ^Bbabove And I am ^Fhigh on the world ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------11(13)-11-10-11-10-------------- -----------------------------------------------12-10-------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

On the tunnel of lo^Dmve. ^C ^Dm ^Bb

It's just the ^Dmdanger ^Fwhen you're riding at your own ^Crisk ^GShe said you are the perfect stranger she said baby ^Dmlet's keep it like this

It's just a ^Dmcakewalk ^F ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------5-----5------------------------------- ----------------------6^5---5------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ twisting baby step right up and ^Csay ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------10(12)-10-9-10-9-10(12)- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

^GHey mister give me two give me two because any ^Dmtwo can play

And I am ^Fhigh on the world ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------11(13)-11-10-------------------- -----------------------------------------12-10-------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------

And now I'm ^Gmsearching through these carousels and the ^Bbcarnival arcades ^GmSearching everywhere from ^Bbsteeplechase and palisades

In any ^Gmshooting gallery where ^Bbpromises are made To ^Crock away rock away from cullercoats and whitley bay out to ^Crockaway
