Verse:
Em Cmaj7      Em Cmaj7         Em
Come, come one, come all,   you must be this tall
Cmaj7  Em Cmaj7      Em
To ride this ride at the carnival
Cmaj7      Em Cmaj7           Em
Oh, come take my hand,   and run through playland
Cmaj7  Em  Cmaj7      Em
So high, too high at the carnival

Bridge:
  Cmaj7      Em  Cmaj7     Em    Cmaj7
And it’s all fun and games, ’til somebody falls in love
      Em         Cmaj7              Em
But you’ve already bought a ticket, and there’s no turning back now

Chorus:
Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love, I could never tell, I know
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I
Feel like I’m glued on tight to this carousel

Verse:
This horse is too slow, we’re always this close
Almost, almost, we’re a freakshow
Right, right when I’m near, it’s like you disappear
Where’d you go, is that Houdini or a freakshow

Bridge:
And it’s all fun and games, ’til somebody falls in love
But you’ve already bought a ticket, and there?s no turning back now

Chorus:
Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love, I could never tell, I know
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I
Feel like I’m glued on tight to this carousel

Turnover:
Em     D   Cmaj7
Why did you steal my cotton candy heart
Em      D    Cmaj7
 You threw it in this damn coin slot
Em     D    Cmaj7
 And now I’m stuck, I’m stuck
Em   D    Cmaj7
Riding, riding, riding

Chorus:
Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love, I could never tell, I know
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I
Feel like I’m glued on tight to this carousel
