CAPO 4
 G5                       E5                                G5        
Baby ballerina's hiding somewhere in the corner, where the shadows 
                        E5
wrap around her and our torches cannot find her, 
         G5                                 E5
she will stay there 'til the morning,crawl behind us as we are 
                  G5                  D5            G5
yawning, she will leave our games to never be the same. 

chorus
  E5    C5    D5      G5
So grow tall sugar cane. 
 E5     C5      D5        G5
Eat the soil, drink the rain. 
   E5            C5                D5                 G5
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games. 
   E5       C5    D5     G5
So run, run fast sugar cane. 

  G5                                            E5
You see my peep show booth is handy. There's a one way only mirror, 
         G5                                         E5
so I can dance here with my hair down, but i don't see if you get 
                      G5                                    E5
bitter. And there's a button right beside me if i happen to want a 
                   G5          D5               G5
wall to hide me,if only the ballerina had one too. 

chorus
          G5               D5
And she said, "always, be afraid". 
              G5            D5
And she said, "always, be afraid".

  E5     C5    D5       G5
To grow tall sugar cane. 
E5        C5    D5         G5
Eat that soil, drink the rain. 
   E5            C5                D5                 G5
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games. 
   E5       C5     D5    G5
So run, run fast sugar cane. 

yeah you'd better run, run fast Sugar Cane. 
yeah you'd better run, run fast Sugar Cane.
