a[G#Maj] late april day and it's s[CMaj]unny outside
a[G#Maj]nd a red little girl's at [CMaj]the top of a slide
a[G#Maj]nd an an orange old man at[CMaj] the bottom
G#Maj Riff 1
wants to take her for a ride
a[G#Maj]s she slips and she tumbles the [CMaj]orange man mumbles
p[G#maj]ennies crash down from the sk[CMaj]y
a[G#Maj]nd he tells her he'll take her [CMaj]away where it's safe
G#Maj Riff 1
and of course it is a lie
she's a [G#maj]third the down and her [CMaj]skirts are yanked up
and her [G#maj]little girl cheeks start to w[CMaj]rinkle
but her [G#maj]smile is wide and her l[CMaj]egs are spread wider
her hair[G#maj] growing long and her h[CMaj]ips getting larger
past get[G#maj]ting brighter
G#maj Riff 1
light growing weaker....
she is [G#maj]halfway down now but t[CMaj]he man is impatient
shakes [G#maj]change in his pocket he [CMaj]might have to wait but she's coming...
[G#maj]she's coming...
[G#majj]she's coming...
[Cmin]who are you blaming?
[G#maj]they're just playing!
[Gmaj]that's a good one...
[Cmin]who left the playground
a good d[G#maj]ecade before the [Gmaj]bell rang?
as she s[G#maj]tarts to draw nearer the [CMaj]view becomes clearer
the spli[G#maj]nters are painful but she[CMaj] doesn't feel it
the pe[G#maj]nnies were loaded and [CMaj]as they exploded
G#maj Riff 1
she starts to spin out of control...
her e[G#maj]yes are now closing her s[CMaj]leeves are unrolling
up pa[G#maj]st her head and her [CMaj]veins are all showing
not t[G#maj]hat she noticed she'[CMaj]s thoroughly focused on
o[G#maj]ne old man who'[CMaj]s laughing...
w[G#maj]ho's laughing....
w[G#maj]ho's laughing....
[Cmin]dont' worry
[G#Maj]i've got you
[Cmin]don't worry
[G#Maj]i've got you
[Cmin]don't worry
[G#Maj]i've got you
[Cmin]don't worry
[G#Maj]i've got you
Riff 1
the o[Cmin]rangeman g[G#maj]ot you..[Gmaj]...
a l[G#Maj]ate april day and it's [CMaj]sunny outside
and[G#Maj] a red little girl's at t[CMaj]he top of a slide
and[G#Maj] an orange old man [CMaj]at the bottom
G#Maj Riff 1
wants to take her for a ride
