Lights flashing in magic colours, enjoy the fun of the fair

F C G Bm Am D
Keep your eyes on those bright lights, playing me's not worth a go

Ride the waltzer one more time, see the faces smiling by
D Am C Em Bb Am G
Throw a penny for a candy apple, test your strength for a dime
Throw away your troubles, don't waste time on my sad show
Keep your eyes on those bright lights, it's not me you want to know
CHORUS
D Am C Em Bb Am G
Noone wants to hear my sad story, and noone wants to feel bad,

And noone's got the time to worry, When it's so easy to be glad,
Throw away your troubles, don't waste time on my sad show
Keep your eyes on those bright lights, I'll still be here tomorrow

With a night owl's stare
To drown all our sorrows. We're

Singing’s easy

Or a room that doesn’t hear
Nobody’s gonna catch those words
While you’re playing
Don’t catch their eyes
keep your sight on the frets
Like telling your problems to your fingers
Is gonna make it all come right
Its so simple
If words could make you strong
Chorus

And every bar and every phrase
Am D
That flows from your mind

Aint worth a note in the wind

Hiding under covers
Cmaj7 Em7 Am7 Em7
Shielding your face

Where only demons hide

And don’t let those sighs
C Em Am7
Ever reach the sky
