"Carnival Girl"  by Cliff Eberhardt - 1997

<Chorus>
C  D         G        C
She    was a carnival girl

                            D
She never took too much too seriously

C   D           G         C  
She asked me if I had the time

                     D        G
I took a ride with a carnival girl

Verse

    D                      C          G
Her hand in my pocket, her lips on my cheek

    D                    C             G
The way she performs, it makes me feel weak

    Em                    Bm  
The rides are the same, although I pretend

           C          C/B       Am            D
There's no need to be scared, I know how this ends

<Chorus>

I was good at the con, half boy and half beast
I would take her to dinner, but I am the feast
I still play the game, though she'll never see
I'm teaching her while she's taking me

<Chorus>

I followed her home, I slept in her trailer
I knew she would win this sooner or later
She thinks that she's fooled me, but it's been my pleasure
To show her the ropes, to educate her

<Chorus>
