(ver. 1)
Ellis Paul

Capo on 4th but optional?
(* STRUM ONCE)

Intro : G-Am7-D-C x2

G                  Em                      D    C/C/*B/*A
I  found  you  sitting  on  a  suitcase  crying

G                        Em                       D    C/C*B/*A
Beneath my feet,  I feel the rumble of a subway train

G                                Em                         D    C/C*B/*A
I laugh out loud, 'cause it's the one thing I hadn't been trying

G
The train came in breathless,

Em
The passenger's restless
          D                       C
You say, "Baby, you'll never change"


Chorus:

                      G                             Am7
You    gotta   get   gone,   you   gotta   get   going

        C                                D
Hey,   the   world   ain't   slowing   down   for   no one

G                         Am7           C      D
It's   a   carnival    calling   out   to   you

                         G                             Am7
It   sounds   like   a   song,   Hits   you  like   scripture

                C                            D
You paint the picture , With   colors   squeezed    from   your   hand

                                                                            G   
                                     Am7                           C
Weren't   you   the   kid   who  just  climbed   on   the   merry-go-round

                      D                         G      Em
Hey   look,   the   world   ain't   slowing   down

  D                            C              G           Em       
He-Hey,  hey,   the world ain't slowing down

 D        C/C*B/*A

Hey, hey...


G                             Em                                             
Out   on   the   sidewalk,    Pigeon's   do   the   moonwalk

D                                      C/C*B/*A
I'll   be   dancing   like   Fred   Astaire


G                                   Em             
The   lamppost's   are   rocking,  The   whole  town's   talking

D                           C/C*B/*A
Like a fool in a barber's chair

G                                         Em
And   I   get   the   sensation,   The   joy   and   frustration

D                               C/C*B/*A
Like being caught by a tropical rain

G
Freedom can numb you,

Em
When there's no place to run to

D                        C
It feels just like Novocaine

  G                                 Am7
You    gotta   get   gone,   you   gotta   get   going

       C                                 D
Hey,   the   world   ain't   slowing   down   for   no one

G                         Am7          C            D
It's   a   carnival    calling   out   to   you   (it's callin' out to you)

                          G                              Am7
It   sounds   like   a   song,   Hits   you  like   scripture

                C                         D
You paint the picture , With   colors   squeezed    from   your   hand

                                                                            G   
                                    Am                           C
Weren't   you   the   kid   who  just  climbed   on   the   merry-go-round

                      D                         G      Em
Hey   look,   the   world   ain't   slowing   down

  D                       C              G   Em
He-Hey,  hey,   the world ain't slowing down

  D    C/C*B/*A
Hey, hey...

G
You packed up all your handbags,


 Em
Throwing   off   the   sandbags


C                                      D
I   let   go   and   you   stepped   free


G                                        Em
I   didn't   want   to   loose   you ,   you said you   didn't  choose   to,

D                         C/C*B/*A
It's just how your karma came."

 G
But thanks for the vision,

Em
And the twenty-twenty wisdom

D                                C
It hit me like a south-bound train


                      G                            Am7
You    gotta   get   gone,   you   gotta   get   going

         C                                D
Hey,   the   world   ain't   slowing   down   for   no one

G                         Am7          C            D
It's   a   carnival    calling   out   to   you   (it's callin' out to you)

                          G                             Am7
It   sounds   like   a   song,   Hits   you  like   scripture

               C                            D
You paint the picture , With   colors   squeezed    from   your   hand

                                                                            G   
                                  Am7
Weren't   you   the   kid   who  just  climbed   on   the   merry-go

C
Weren't you the kid

               D
Who just climbed on the merry-go--

G
Weren't you the kid

               Am7                     C
Who just climbed on the merry-go-round


                D                  G    Em
Hey look, the world ain't slowing down


   D               C/C*B/*A                       G 
A-Hey, hey,     the   world   ain't   slowing down


Em          D            C/C*B/*A                G
Hey, hey,  it's   a   big,   blue   world

Em                   D        
It's   a   big,   blue   world

(C/C*B/*A  x3)                         G
Rock    my    big,    blue    world
