Leaves are fallin' down on the beautiful ground
          Cm
I heard a story from the man in red

He said "The leaves are fallin' down

Such a beautiful sound
       Cm
Son, I think you'd better go ahead
        Eb
But you always hold your head up high
              Cm
'Cause it's a long, long, long way down
              Eb
This town was meant for passing through

Now go and show 'em that the world stayed round

And watch the clouds fall from the sky
     Bb              Eb       Cm

Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk

I shake a little
Cm
Sometimes I hate the line I walk

Now Adam's taking bombs and he's stuck on his mom
             Cm
Because that bitch keeps tryin' to make him pray
              Eb
He's with the hippie in the park combing over the dark
               Cm
Just tryin' to get some of that little-girl play

You better run for the hills before they burn
              Fm

But you know I could stay here

All night

This river is wild

    Eb
And cars are everywhere
                              G#
Raisin' dust at the fairground
                                      Eb        Bb
I don't think I ever seen so many headlights
                              Cm
But there's somethin' pullin' me
   Eb
The circus and the crew
            Bb
Well they're just passin' through
     Cm              Bb         G#
Makin' sure the merry still goes 'round
           Bb                   Eb
