[E]
The dark [Em] and distant drumming, [Am] the pounding of the hooves, [Em] the silence of everything that moves.
Late at night you see them, [Am]
decked out in shiny jewels, [Em] the coming of the [B] caravan [Em] of fools.
Like the wings of a dove, [Am]
the waiter's white glove [E] seems to shimmer by the [Em] light of the pool.
Some dove blinding winter, [Am] when you can't help but lose, [Em] you're running with the [B] caravan [Em] of fools.
Love
[Am]
[Em]
[A] [B] [Em]
[E]
and devotion, [A] deep as any ocean, [E] don't play by [B] anybody's [E]
rules.
With your carousel of horses [Am] and your unforeseen forces, [E] you're running with [B] the caravan [E] of fools.
Caravan of fools, [Am]
caravan of fools, [E]
you're running with [B] the caravan [Em]
of fools.
