#This may not be exact, (it's hard to transcribe a 12
#string guitar when you don't have one) but it sounds okay.
#The actual is somewhere high up on the neck (I don't
#feel like finding out where).
#
#If anyone knows what the lyric is that I have written as
#"More? see the people pass Lily", please let me know.

#Introduction (spoken)
#
#If you're ever in New York...(Is it a girl?)
#If you're ever in New York, there's not very
#many carnivals going on
#And that may not be much, but uh...
#If you're used to a carnival every once in a while
#Then New York doesn't have it
#Then you gotta write a carnival song
#But that don't really make it either
#'Cause what's a song without a carnival?
