[Verse 1]
[E]You can walk on the water,[A]
[E]drown in the sand[A]
[E]You can fly off a mountaintop if anybody can[A]
[E]Run away, run away -- it's the restless age[A]
[E]Look away, look away--you can turn the page[A]
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, b[A]uddy, would you l[A7]ike to buy a watch real c[E]heap
[E]Here on the street
[F#m]I got [E/G#]six on each a[A]rm and t[B7sus]wo more round my fe[E]et
[Chorus]
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival--be[E]lieve it or [A/E]not
[E]Life is a ca[A/E]rnival--t[E]wo bits a s[A/E]hot
[Verse 2]
[E]Saw a man with the jinx [A]
[E]in the third degree[A]
[E]From trying to deal with people, people you can't see
[E]Take away, take away, this house of mirrors[A]
[E]Give away, give away, all the souvenirs[A]
[Pre-Chorus]
We're [A]all in the same b[A7]oat ready to float off th[E]e edge of the world
[E]The flat old world
[F#m]The st[E/G#]reet is a sid[A]eshow from the [B7sus]peddler to the corner [E]girl
[Chorus]
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival, it[E]'s in the bo[A/E]ok
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival, ta[E]ke another l[A/E]ook
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, b[A]uddy, would you l[A7]ike to buy a watch real c[E]heap
[E]Here on the street
[F#m]I got [E/G#]six on each a[A]rm and t[B7sus]wo more round my fe[E]et
[Chorus]
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival, be[E]lieve it or [A/E]not
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival, tw[E]o bits a sho[A/E]t
[Outro]
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival
[E]Life is a c[A/E]arnival
