verse -
C# minorC#m             / / / /
The lights still in our eyes
              / / / /
We're leaving this old fairground behind
                / / / / / /
Its a dream thats growing cold

C# minorC#m         / / / /
The circus never dies
            / / / /
The eye forever haunts these skies
           / / / / / /
I know we cannot stay

Chorus -
A augmentedA      BB   C# minorC#m
  Fairwell to the fairground
AbmAbm       AbmAbm  BB
  These rides aren't working anymore
A augmentedA     BB    C# minorC#m
 Goodbye to this dead town
AbmAbm   AbmAbm  BB
  Until the ice begins to thaw

(verse)
This place used to gleam
I'd see it in my hopeful dreams
Now I have to get away

We move towards the stars
And all that we touch becomes ours
Lets keep warm till its day

(chorus)
Fairwell to the fairground
These rides aren't working anymore
Goodbye to this dead town
Until the ice begins to thaw

A5A5       B5B5  C#5C#5
We'll head south just hold my hand now
Ab5Ab5         B5B5
  I feel like i've cast it off my clothes
    A5A5             B5B5    C#5C#5
And i'm running through the snow towards the sunset
    Ab5Ab5     B5B5
And i'm always with you


Middle 8 - the first two of these are palm muted, then played openly

E MajorE    B5B5  C#5C#5
E MajorE
Keep on running, keep keep on running
    B5B5             C#5C#5
Theres no place like home, theres no place like home x6
E5E5
Keep on running, keep keep on running
    F#5F#5            Ab5(2)
Theres no place like home, theres no place like home
