Carnival Chords

(ver. 1)
Natalie Merchant
Intro: Dwell on F#m for a while, then F#m  E   D  F#m

F#m                                          E
    Well I've walked these streets, a virtual stage it seemed to me
D                                                    F#m
make-up on their faces actors took their place next to me.
F#m                                          E
    Well I've walked these streets in a Carnival    of sites to see
D                                                              F#m
All the cheap thrill seekers the vendors and the dealers, they crowded   around me
  
A                                  E
    Have I been blind, have I been lost, inside myself and my own mind
D                                           F#m
Hypnotized, mesmerized, by what my eyes have seen

F#m                                      E
    I've walked these streets in a spectacle of wealth and poverty
D                                                        F#m
   In the diamond market the scarlet welcome carpet that they?ve just rolled out for me

F#m                                       E
    and I've walked these streets, in the madhouse asylum they can be
        D                                                    F#m
where a wild and misfit profit, a traffic island star and he raves of saving me

A                                  E
    Have I been blind, have I been lost inside myself and my own mind
D                                           F#m
Hypnotized, mesmerized, by what my eyes have seen

A                                   E       
     Have I been wrong, have I been wise to shut my eyes and play along
D                                           F#m    D                    E
Hypnotized, paralyzed, by what my eyes have found, by what my eyes have seen,
               F#m
What they have seen

SOLO:  F#m E D F#m    F#m E D F#m

A                E                   D
     Have I been blind , have I been lost
            A                 E                 D
Have I been wrong have I been wise, have I been strong,  
            A                      E                     D
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized, by what my eyes have found
   F#m        D           E
In that great street carnival
A               E                  D      
    Have I been blind, have I been lost, 
            A                  E                 D
have I been wrong, have I been wise, have I been strong
            A                     E                      D
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized, by what my eyes have found

   F#m        D           E                 F#m
In that great street Carnival,  in that Carnival
