[C#m]The lights still in our eyes[/][/][/][/]
We're leaving this old fair[/]gr[/]ou[/]nd[/] behind
Its a dream thats growing cold[/][/][/][/][/][/]
[C#m]The circus never dies[/][/][/][/]
The eye forever haunts [/]th[/]es[/]e [/]skies
I know we cannot stay[/][/][/][/][/][/]
Chorus -
[A] Fairwell [B]to the [C#m]fairground
[Abm] These rides [Abm]aren't [B]working anymore
[A] Goodbye [B]to this [C#m]dead town
[Abm] Unti[Abm]l the [B]ice begins to thaw
(verse)
This place used to gleam
I'd see it in my hopeful dreams
Now I have to get away
We move towards the stars
And all that we touch becomes ours
Lets keep warm till its day
(chorus)
Fairwell to the fairground
These rides aren't working anymore
Goodbye to this dead town
Until the ice begins to thaw
[A5]We'll head south[B5] just [C#5]hold my hand now
[Ab5] I feel like i've [B5]cast it off my clothes
And i'm [A5]running through the snow to[B5]wards the [C#5]sunset
And i'm [Ab5]always with [B5]you
Middle 8 - the first two of these are palm muted, then played openly
[E] [B5] [C#5]
[E]Keep on running, keep keep on running
Theres [B5]no place like home, theres [C#5]no place like home x6
[E5]Keep on running, keep keep on running
Theres [F#5]no place like home, theres [Ab5(2)]no place like home
(chorus)
outro is same chords as chorus and ending is same as intro (C#m)
