Mark Lanegan Carnival Lyrics

Mark Lanegan - Carnival
Standard A Cadd9 and G work fine and flow a lot better then bar chords do for me
as a novice I strum with an emphasis on the low note at the change and the high notes
the measure: do dadadadada do dadadadada do dadadadada
if you have a friend who plays the violin this is a great tune to jam as the violin
the plucky solo during the bridge
Where in the world have you been
It's as strange as I've ever lived
So you're coming along to the side show
I'll be falling all over like dominoes
For girls are sad in their eyes
Their all standing around being hypnotized
And walking me back to the firing line
You smiled again in the door
You can't keep it closed anymore
Tell your ma that you've gone to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
Just scratching a stitch in the skin
I'm moaning for more other medicine
In the morning you're wondering where you've been
Just turning your back to the ghosts
And trying to look like you just might know
That all the good that you've seen
Just went down and entered the dream
(Coda)
All the kids and their straight out now
In the morning I want to find it all out
Honey what can be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standing around like their hypnotized
And follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
And I am home
(Coda) 1time
repeat pattern with vocal inflections and violin jam
