The Comedians  Roy Orbison

"The Comedians" (Capo: 3rd. fret)
____Intro:
[A]  
____Verse: 1
I [A]sat there al[E]one upon the [A]ferris wheel
a [A]pastel colored carriage in the [D]air
I [Bm]thought you'd leave me [F#7]dangling for a [Bm]little while
a [Bm]silly twist up[Bm7]on a childish [E]dare
____Verse: 2
Be[A]low I saw you [E]whispering to an[A]other man
who [A]held the lever that could bring me [D]down
he'd [Bm]stop the world from [F#7]turning at [Bm]your command
it's [Bm]always something [Bm7]cruel that laughter [E]drowns
____Chorus:
and [E]I'm up while the [A]dawn is breaking
[A7]even though my [D]heart is aching
I should be drinking a [D#dim7]toast
to absent [E]friends
instead of [Fdim7]these comedi[A]ans[E]
[F#m] [C#7] [D] [A] [G] [D/F#] [E] [A]  
____Verse: 3
I can [A]hardly hear the [E]music from the [A]carousel
the [A]wind picks up, the carriage starts [D]sway
as [F#m]one by one the [C#]lights go out it's [F#m]closing time
I [E]see you take his hand and walk away, walk a[A]way
[E] [F#m] [C#7] [D] [A] [G] [D/F#] [E] [A]  
____Verse: 4
They [A]say that you will [E]always be the [A]last to know
they [A]say that all that glitters is not [D]gold
it's [F#m]not just that you're [C#]never coming [F#m]back to me
[E]it's the bitter way that I was told
____Chorus:
and [A]I'm up while the [D]dawn is breaking
[D7]even though my [G]heart is aching
I should be drinking a [G#dim7]toast
to absent [A]friends
instead of [A7]these comedi[D]ans
