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

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


Chorus -
A           B      C#m
   Fairwell to the fairground
Abm             Abm    B
    These rides aren't working anymore
A         B       C#m
  Goodbye to this dead town
Abm     Abm   B
    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

A5              B5    C#5
We'll head south just hold my hand now
Ab5                  B5
    I feel like i've cast it off my clothes
        A5                         B5        C#5
And i'm running through the snow towards the sunset
        Ab5         B5
And i'm always with you


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

Theres no place like home, theres no place like home x6
E5
Keep on running, keep keep on running
       F#5                        Ab5(2)
Theres no place like home, theres no place like home
