[Start]
[Chorus]
F Bb Bbm F
■ Getting crazy on the waltzers ■ but it's the life that I choose
C7 F
Sing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a torture tattoo
F7 Bb
And I been riding on a ghost train where the cars they scream and slam
F Gm C7
And I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd always tell you where I am ■ ■
F C7 F
In a screaming ring of faces I seen her standing in the light
F
She had a ticket for the races just like me she was a victim of the night
Bb
I put a hand upon the lever said let it rock and let it roll
F Bb Gm C7
I had the one arm bandit fever there was an arrow ■ ■ through my heart and my soul
[Verse]
F Db Bbm
And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
Ab7
And I'm just high on the world
F7 F
Come on and take a low ride with me girl
G7
On the tunnel of love
G7
It's just the danger when you're riding at your own risk
F
She said you are the perfect stranger she said baby let's keep it like this
F7
It's just a cake walk twisting baby step right up and say
Bb
Hey mister give me two give me two cos any two can play
Bb
And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
C7
And I'm just high on the world
Bb G7 C7
Come on and take a low ride with me ■ girl
C7
On the tunnel of love
F7 C7 F Bb
Well it's been money ■ ■ for muscle ■ another whirligig
[Chorus]
Bbm F
■ Money for muscle and another girl I dig
F
Another hustle just to make it big
F
And rockaway rockaway
C7 G7
And girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
C7 G7 F F7 Bbm
Like the spanish city to me when ■ ■ we were kids
F
Oh girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
Bb
Like the spanish city to me when we were kids
C7
She took off a silver locket she said remember me by this
F Db
She put her hand in my pocket I got a keepsake and a kiss
Bbm Eb7 Ab7 F
And in the roar of the dust and diesel I stood and watched her walk away
G7
I could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me
G7
Stay And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
C7
And I'm just high on the world
C7
Come on and take a low ride with me girl
F
On the tunnel of love
F
And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
F7 Bb
Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades
Bb
In any shooting gallery where promises are made
F
To rockaway rockaway from cullercoats and whitley bay out to rockaway
Bb C7
And girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did
C7 C
Like the spanish city to me when we were kids
C7
Girl it looks ■ so pretty to me like it always did
[Outro]
C7
Like the spanish city to me when we were kids
