getting crazy on the wDm altzersF  but it's the life that i cC hoose

and i've been Dm riding on a ghost trainF  where the cars they C scream and slam
G and i don't know where i'll be tonite but i'd alDm ways tell you where i am
in a screaming ring of faces i seen her standing in the light
she had a ticket for the races just like me she was a victim of the night
i put my hand upon the lever said let it rock and let it roll
i had the one arm bandit fever there was an arrow through my heart and my soul

Dm  and the big wheel keep on tBb urniC ng neon bF urning up aBb bove
and i'm F high on the world
come on take a lDm ow ride with me giBb rl
on the tunnel of lDm oveF  C  Dm  Bb 

it's just the danger when you're riding at your own risk
she said you are the perfect stranger she said baby let's keep it like this
it's just a cakewalk twisting baby step right up and say
hey mister give me two give me two cos any two can play

and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
and i'm high on the world
come on take a low ride with me girl
on the tunnel of love

she took off a silver locket she said remember me by this
she put her hand in my pocket i got a keepsake and a kiss
and in the roar of dust and diesel i stood and watched her walk away
i could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me stay

and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
and i'm high on the world
come on take a low ride with me girl
on the tunnel of love

and now i'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
searching everywhere from steeplechase and palisades
in any shooting gallery where promises are made
to rockaway rockaway from cullercoats and whitley bay out to rockaway

and girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
like the spaninh city to me when we were kids
oh girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
like the spanish city to me when we were kids
