[Verse 1]
[Am]If you spend enough cash at the
[G]carnival games
You'll have a [F]prize in your hand
when you walk away
Let it [Am]slip through your fingers
and you'll [G]never know
[F]What winning's really like, oh
I [Am]stayed there too long,
now it's [G]in my soul
And when the [F]thunder rolls,
I got nowhere to go
I [Am]keep going round on this [G]carousel
Because it [F]spins me so well
And [Dm]I'll stay with you just
a [Em]little while
There's so [Dm]much for us to see [Em]and do

But don't mis[Dm]take this for an ad
[Em]venture in paradise
[Dm]Just because the rides look so [G]good

[C]Carnival games are so [G]much fun to play,
hard to [Am]just walk away from
And [G]all you want,

Crying from all the years [G]playing
carnival [F]games
[G][Em]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Do you know [Am]which way to look,
all [G]the shining lights
And [F]your name on the postcard of your life
And [Am]everyone will say that
[G]you came to conquer
Yeah, you [F]won the whole race
[Am]But don't [F]mis[Dm]take

an ad[Em]venture in paradise
[Dm]Just because the rides
[Em]look so good[G]
