[B]
[E] [B] [F#]
[B] I found you [G#m] sitting on a suitcase [B] crying
[E] [B] Beneath my feet I feel [G#m] the rumble of a subway [F#]
[B] train Yeah
I laugh out loud cause it's [G#m] the one thing I hadn't [F#] been trying [E] Yeah
[B] The train [G#m] came in breathless, the passengers restless
You said, [F#] baby you'll never [E] [B] change
You gotta get going, you gotta keep [C#m] going
And [E] the world ain't [F#] slowing down
[B] And go on, it's a carnival [C#m] calling out [E] to you
[F#] It sounds like a [B] song, it hits you [C#m] like Scritcher
You paint [E] the picture with color [F#] squeezed from your hand
[B] Weren't you the kid who [C#m] just climbed on the merry-go [E]-round?
Hey look, [F#] the world ain't slowing [B] down
[G#m] [F#] Hey, hey, [B] hey
The world ain't slowing down
[G#m] Hey, [F#] hey, [B] hey
[E] [B] Out on the sidewalk, [G#m] pigeons to the moon
[F#] I'll be dancing like Fred [E] [B] Astaire
The lampposts are rocking, the [G#m] whole town's talking
Like [F#] a fool in a [E] barber's chair
[B] And I get the sensation, [G#m] joy and frustration
[F#] Like being caught by a tropical [E] [B] rain
A freedom can numb you [G#m] when there's no place to run [F#] to
Feels just like no [E] other train
[B] You gotta get going, you gotta [C#m] keep going
[E] And the world ain't [F#] slowing down
And go [B] on, it's a [C#m] carnival calling out to [E]
[F#] you
It sounds [B] like a song, it hits you [C#m] like Scritcher
You [E] paint the picture with [F#] color squeezed [B] from your hand
Weren't you the kid [C#m] who just climbed on the merry-go [E]-round?
Hey look, [F#] the world ain't slowing [B] down
[G#m] [F#] Hey, hey, [B]
hey
The world ain't slowing down
[G#m] Hey, [F#] hey,
[B] [E] hey
[B]
You packed up all your handbag
Throwing off the sandbag
[E] I let go when you [F#] step free
I [B] didn't wanna lose you, [G#m] you said you didn't choose to
[F#] It's just how your [B]
karma [E] [B] came
But thanks for the vision [G#m] and the 2020 wisdom
[F#] It hit me like a southbound [E] train
You [B] gotta get going, you gotta keep [C#m] going
And the [E] world ain't slowing [F#] down
And go [B] on, it's a [C#m] carnival calling out to [E] you
It's calling out to [F#] you
It sounds like a [B] song, it hits you [C#m] like Scritcher
You paint [E] the picture with color [F#] squeezed from your [B] hand
Weren't you the kid who [C#m] just climbed on the merry-go [E]-round?
Weren't you the kid who [F#] just climbed on the [B] merry-go-round?
Weren't you the kid who just [C#m] climbed on the merry-go [E]-round?
Hey look, [F#] the world ain't slowing [B] down
Hey, hey, hey
The world ain't slowing down
[G#m] Hey, hey, [F#]
hey
[E] It's [B] a big blue world
[G#m] It's a [B] big blue world
