[Intro 1]
[D#][Bb][D#][Em][C][F][C][Em][F][Am][C][D][D#][Em]

[Verse 1]
[C]I can[Em]
still remember [C]the coat I wore that [Em]day[C][Em]
[Am]Yellow as a plastic moon,
with a weaver's thickest [Em]chains[C][Em]
Walk[D]ing past a sideshow tent,
[Em]drunker than we knew
Could [D]never feel my brother's [C]shoes
[Dsus4]I got the[C]m fairground blu[D]es[Em]
[C]I got them fairground b[Em]lues
Where the wine of the auctioneer
[C]seemed to loosen up the [Em]dead
And the bark[Am]er at the burlesque show,
he wrapped his arms around brother's [Em]head
[D]Brother said there's sway for me,
[Em]no place inside for you
Can [D]never fill my [C]brother[D] 's sh[C]oes[Dsus4]
[C]Got them fairground blu[Em]es,
[C]I got them fairground b[Em]lues
Waited long outside the show,
[C]and then my feet walked by themsel[Em]ves
With the crowd [Am]scraping against my coat,
so many hands I couldn't [Em]yet[D][Em][D][C]
[D]I g[C]ot [Dsus4]them fair[C]ground blues[D],[Em]
[C]got them fairground [Em]blues[C][Em][F#m][Em]
[Am][Em][C][Em][D][Em][D][Em][D][C][D][C]
[Dsus4][D][Em][C][Em]
It's gone so long I didn't know
[C]If my brother'd still be [Em]there
When I got [A]back to the bur[Am]lesque show,
four cops were [A]standing on the [Em]stairs[D]
[Em]Brot[D]her's hands were stuck in ic[G]e,
[Em]sweat had soaked his hair
He [D]said, you missed the [C]fun [D]in [C]bed[Dsus4]
[C]You missed the fun[D] in bed[Em]
[C]Missed all the fun in [Em]bed[C][Em][Am][Em][D][Em]
[D][C][Dsus4][C][Dsus4][D][Em][C][Em]
face was red and wild
[C]Cops on duty, [Em]know that, boy
Choked a man for [Am]just a smile
This one's a killer, [Em]not a boy
[C]My [D]brother's been laughing, said
I [Em]should've stuck with you
Your [D]brother should've
[C]stuck [D]with [C]you[Dsus4]
[C]I got them fairground b[Em]lues
[C]I got them fairground b[Em]lues
[C]I've got them fairground [Em]blues
[C]I've got them fairground [D]blues[Am][C][D]
[Em][Am][C][Em][Am][C][Em][Am][C][D]
[Em]
