[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Let me [G]ride on
the wall of [C]death one more [G]time
Let me [Em]ride on the wall of
[C]death one more [D]time
You can [C]waste your time on the other rides
but [D]this is the nearest to being alive
[G]Let me [Em]take my [C]chances
on [D]the Wall of [G]Death
You can go with the crazy [C]people
in the crooked [G]house
You can [Em]fly away on the [C]rocket
or spin in [D]the mouse
The [C]tunnel of love might amuse you
And [D]Noah's Ark might confuse you but
[G]Let me take [Em]my c[C]hances
on the [D]Wall of [G]Death
On the [Em]Wall of Death
[Bm]All the Worl[Em]d is far f[Bm]rom me[Am]
On the [Em]Wall of Death
[Bm]It's the n[Em]earest[Bm][C]
to being [D]free
Well you're [G]going nowhere when
you [C]ride on [G]the carousel
And [Em]maybe you're strong,
but [C]what's the use of ringing a [D]bell
The [C]switchback will make you crazy
Be[D]ware of the bearded lady
Oh [G]let me take [Em]my ch[C]ances on t[D]he Wall of D[G]eath[Em]
[Bm][Em][Bm][Am][Em][Bm][Em][Bm][C][D]
You are [G]going nowhere when you
[C]ride on the carou[G]sel[C][G]
And [Em]maybe you're strong,
but [C]what's the use of ringing a [D]bell
[C]The switchback will make you crazy
Be[D]ware of the bearded lady
[G]Let me [Em]take [C]my [D]chances
[G]Let me take [Em]my c[C]hances[D]
[G]Let me [Em]take my [C]chances
[D][C][D]
