Current-93 - This Carnival Is Dead And Gone Chords

Am

Am
Dear sir dear lady

      G           Em
This carnival is dead and gone

Am                         G          Bm     Am
And never anyway alas this party never yet began

The chairs and tables dust of dust

G                Em      Am 
Yes verydust of veryrust of verymust and farewelltrust

   G                  Bm        Am 
I thought I saw you in the crowd dear heart

                              G                 Em
You turned away from me and then you dissolved into light

     Am                Bm
The broken lights and faded buntings

G                          Fmaj7
Call to us all the inmost light
  
                                   G
And don't glare wide your eyes in wonder

      Em              Fmaj7
They will flick back inside your mind

                       G
And on the bonescreen of your skull

      Bm       Am
They watch no musical salutes

               G         Em   Am
So thoroughly modern now we are

But the last reel of all time

G                Am
The inmost night

Its frames are glared and slow and out of focus

G            Em            Am
Valentino Vallee Moss all dead!

The inmost night

          G         Bm    Am
And the little bells go tinkle

And your eyes begin to twinkle
 
         G                 Em  
And the joints and sinews crack

Am                                G
It's the expansion of your mind death
Death
Death
Death

Fmaj7       Am
The inmost night

     G          Em                Am
The cat's face glares from shiny card

The deadcat from my past

      G         Bm        Am
You tumble you froth and fun forever

   Fmaj7          Am
An orchestra from another time

G              Em
Another world all dead

      Am                                      G                Bm Am
The churchbells silent the rainstained glass of God is smashed

And you take your choice you sup with the devil

     G                  Em
You choke on your pride for ever and ever

    Fmaj7                         G               Bm   Am 
My memory of my inmost light it tumbles froth and fun forever

                                   G
Vulvaic memories imagined of my would-be-life

      Em
Well that won't be

     Am
And that won't be

And that won't be

G         Bm   
And that won't be

Fmaj7
And for my troubles and my pain
 
G                  Em
And for the losses and the wains

   Am
I get a picture in my mind

     G         Bm  Am
The slyly smily smiling kiss

              G
Of your sweet heart and face

Em                          Am
And your legs in some final benediction

                            G
Your inmost warmheart says ta-ra

          Bm    Am
And I wished to die inside of you

                      G         Em
And push up into your heart so violently that

Am                                 G
Face to face with matrix creatrix am

               Bm Am 
The inmost light

The inmost night


A last tip:
Intead of playing Bm Am, you can also play Bm Am G Am instead (all with short strums of course).
