[Verse 1]
E             B
 Down on the midway
A             E
 The sideshow barkers say
            B                A                   B
"Step right up, y'all, I got a game you can't lose"
E                       B
 There's a sucker born every minute
A                    E   
 Long as the wheel keep on spinnin'
                  B                  A             E
And one day, the hand of fate gonna land right on you

[Chorus]
        A                       B     
'Cause life is like a carnival ride

           C#m                       A
And you're watchin' the ground disappear
                                         B                           E
And you're sayin', "Won't you stop this train and let me off right here?"
          A                     B  
And when everything is upside down
          C#m                  A
It won't do you no good to despair
                                         B                        E
Just remember, we're all goin' 'round together at the life-ain't-fair

[Verse 2]
E                        B
 Like the red ball in a game of cups
A                           E
 That moves every time you lift one up
             B                   A           B 
Lookin' for love, you chose the wrong one again
E                        B
 They'll fool you once, fool you twice
A                     E
 You rolled a fool's pair of dice
                 B                        A            E
And what you thought was gold is just an old piece of tin

[Chorus]
        A                       B     
'Cause life is like a carnival ride
           C#m                       A
And you're watchin' the ground disappear

                                         B                           E
And you're sayin', "Won't you stop this train and let me off right here?"
          A                     B  
And when everything is upside down
          C#m                  A
It won't do you no good to despair
                                         B                        E
Just remember, we're all goin' 'round together at the life-ain't-fair

[Bridge]
E             B 
 Just like a funhouse mirror
A               B     
 In a blur goes one more year
E            B             A            B     
And time is one thing your money can't buy
E                            B 
 So take your place in the freak show
A                    E 
 Let go of things beyond your control
                B             A                E  
And enjoy the view from that big wheel in the sky

[Chorus]
        A                       B     
'Cause life is like a carnival ride
           C#m                       A
And you're watchin' the ground disappear
                                         B                           E
And you're sayin', "Won't you stop this train and let me off right here?"
          A                     B  
And when everything is upside down
          C#m                  A
It won't do you no good to despair
                                         B                        E
Just remember, we're all goin' 'round together at the life-ain't-fair

[Outro]
             A           B              E
Yeah, we've all got our tickets to the life-ain't-fair
                A                 B                      E
'Cause there's something for everyone at the life-ain't-fair
