Fifty years after the fair/Aimee Mann

Intro: D A Em Em/F# G
                D              A           Em     Em/F#                  G   
Fifty years after the fair the picture I have is so clear   

Underneath the clouds in the air rose the tyrlon and the perisphere
       Em           A                G             D   
And that for me was the finest of scenes    

 Em                 A                       G           D         A    G   
That perfect world across the river in queens               

                 D              A           Em     Em/F#                  G   
Fifty years after the fair I drink from a different cup      

But it does no good to compare 'cause nothing ever measures up
    Em       A                G             D  
I guess just for a second we thought

 Em                 A                       G           D         A    G   
That all good things would rise to the top
chorus:
 Bm           G                        D      
But how beautiful it was - 'tomorrow'

 Bm           G              D          A  
We'll never have a day of sorrow

      Em                     Em/F#                G               A   
We got through the '30's, but our belts were tight     

We conceived of a future with no hope in sight
                Em             Em/F#                C     
We've got decades ahead of us to get it right

   Em           Bb       C                    D      G   
I swear - fifty years after the fair

                D              A           Em     Em/F#                  G   
Fifty years after the fair I live in tomorrow town          

Even on a wing and a prayer The future never came around
       Em           A                G             D   
It hurts to even think of those days        

 Em                 A                       G           D         A    G   
The damage we do by the hopes that we raise
