BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN: THE LAST CARNIVAL From the Album: Working On Dream CAPO on 1st fret, all chords related to capo Sun down, sun down They're taking all the tents down Where have you gone my handsome Billy? Sun down, sun down The carnival train's leaving town Where are you now darling Billy? We won't be dancing together on the high wire Facing the lions with you at my side anymore We won't be breathing the smoke and the fire On a midway Hanging from the trapeze My wrists waiting for your wrists Two daredevils high upon the wall of death You throwing the knife, it lands inches from my heart Sun down bridge: Moon rise, moon rise The light that was in your eyes is gone away Daybreak, daybreak The thing in you that made me ache is gonna stay We'll be riding the train without you tonight The train that keeps on moving Its black smoke scorching the evening sky Millions of stars shining above us like every soul living and dead It's been gathered together by God Sing a hymn over your bones Sun down, sun down Empty are the fairgrounds Where are you now handsome Billy?
