The Comedians
Ton : ACapo 3English
Couplet
I Asat there aElone upon the Aferris wheel
A Apastel colored carriage in the Dair
I Bmthought you'd leave me F#7dangling for a Bmlittle while
A Bmsilly twist uBm7pon a childish Edare
Couplet
BeAlow I saw you Ewhispering to aAnother man
Who Aheld the lever that could bring me Ddown
He'd Bmstop the world from F#7turning at Bmyour command
It's Bmalways something Bm7cruel that laughter Edrowns
Refrain
And EI'm up while the Adawn is breaking
A7Even though my Dheart is aching
I should be drinking a D#7(dim)toast
To absent Efriends
Instead of F7(dim)these comeAdians E
F#m C#7 D A G D/F# E A
Couplet
I can Ahardly hear the Emusic from the Acarousel
The Awind picks up, the carriage starts Dsway
As F#mone by one the C#lights go out it's F#mclosing time
I Esee you take his hand and walk away, walk aAway
E F#m C#7 D A G D/F# E A
Couplet
They Asay that you will Ealways be the Alast to know
They Asay that all that glitters is not Dgold
It's F#mnot just that you're C#never coming F#mback to me
EIt's the bitter way that I was told
Refrain
And AI'm up while the Ddawn is breaking
D7Even though my Gheart is aching
I should be drinking a G#dim7toast
To absent Afriends
Instead of A7these comeDdians
