C5 E5 F5 - E5 - D5 G5 F5 C5


C5                             E5
Well the drunken clown still hanging 'round
          F5          E5         D5
but it's plain the laughters all died down
G5                       F5                  C5
The tears you tried so hard to hide are flowing
C5                        E5
And a blind man with his knife in hand
         F5        E5         D5
has convinced himself that he understands
G5                              
I wish him well, miss Carousel,
    F5             C5
but I gotta be a going


A5                   E5
  Won't you come and get me when
       A5                   E5 
You're sure that you don't need me then
       A5                E5   
I'll stand outside your window
       F5              E5        G5
and proudly call your name   


Well the lady's been told that all her gold
is worth so much she can't be sold
No time to weep, she'll later sleep tomorrow
When she carries her face to the market place
and bets it on the open enrage
She can ring her bells, miss Carousel,
 but this singing brings me sorrow


Won't you come and get me when
You're sure that you don't need me then
I'll stand outside your window
and proudly call your name   


But it's always done, every mothers sun
is surely grown, and never run
So they fight with all their might inside them
When the battles been fought 'n they all been taught
that the trick is just not being caught
Will you give 'em hell, miss Carousel,
 when they're begging you to hide them


Won't you come and get me when
You're sure that you don't need me then
I'll stand outside your window
and proudly call your name  


When they need a rose, your eyes felt closed
You clamped your fingers around your nose
Would you say, that's anyway to judge him
Well you haven't got the authority
too kill him in the first degree
But would you feel compelled, miss Carousel,
if you had something to regret in


Won't you come and get me when
You're sure that you don't need me then
I'll stand outside your window
and proudly call your name  


On velvet beach far beneath the reach
of those who come to pray and preach
The natural man that tried to stand is falling
Well how long will it be before he sees
you own his legs but his mind is free
only you can tell , miss Carousel, 
how long will he be crawling


Won't you come and get me when
You're sure that you don't need me then
I'll stand outside your window
and proudly call your name  


All the castle walls grown so tall
Seems there ain't no hope at all
to reach the top even though you stopped for breathing
But I ain't gonna try to make you cry
the teardrops couldn't find your eyes
It's all been swell, miss Carousel, 
but the time has come for leaving


Won't you come and get me when
You're sure that you don't need me then
