Fifty Years After The Fair

Aimee Mann

 DAEmEm/F#G
Fifty years after the fair the picture I have is so clear   
Underneath the clouds in the air rose the tyrlon and the perisphere
 EmAGD
And that for me was the finest of scenes    
 EmAGDAG
 That perfect world across the river in queens               
 DAEmEm/F#G
Fifty years after the fair I drink from a different cup      
But it does no good to compare 'cause nothing ever measures up
 EmAGD
I guess just for a second we thought 
 EmAGDAG
 That all good things would rise to the top                  
chorus:
 BmGD
 But how beautiful it was - 'tomorrow'
 BmGDA
 We'll never have a day of sorrow 
 EmEm/F#GA
We got through the '30's, but our belts were tight     
We conceived of a future with no hope in sight
 EmEm/F#C
We've got decades ahead of us to get it right
 EmBbCDG
swear - fifty years after the fair       

(solo)
D A Em Em/F# G 2x
 EmAGDAG
 DAEmEm/F#G
Fifty years after the fair I live in tomorrow town          
Even on a wing and a prayer The future never came around
 EmAGD
It hurts to even think of those days        
 EmAGDAG
 The damage we do by the hopes that we raise                 

(chorus)

A Em Em/F# G D (repeat)
