 G#Maj                     CMaj
a late april day and it's sunny outside 
 G#Maj                     CMaj
and a red little girl's at the top of a slide
 G#Maj                     CMaj
and an an orange old man at the bottom 
 G#Maj                  Riff 1          
wants to take her for a ride
 
 G#Maj                           CMaj
as she slips and she tumbles the orange man mumbles 
 G#maj                        CMaj
pennies crash down from the sky 
 G#Maj                          CMaj
and he tells her he'll take her away where it's safe 
      G#Maj            Riff 1  
and of course it is a lie 
        

        G#maj                  CMaj
she's a third the down and her skirts are yanked up
        G#maj                        CMaj 
and her little girl cheeks start to wrinkle
        G#maj                  CMaj    
but her smile is wide and her legs are spread wider
        G#maj                  CMaj
her hair growing long and her hips getting larger 
        G#maj
past getting brighter
        G#maj   Riff 1  
light growing weaker.... 

       G#maj                 CMaj
she is halfway down now but the man is impatient 
       G#maj                   CMaj                       
shakes change in his pocket he 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 
        G#maj            Gmaj
a good decade before the bell rang? 



        G#maj                    CMaj
as she starts to draw nearer the view becomes clearer 
        G#maj                    CMaj
the splinters are painful but she doesn't feel it 
      G#maj                 CMaj
the pennies were loaded and as they exploded 
      G#maj          Riff 1  
she starts to spin out of control... 


     G#maj                    CMaj
her eyes are now closing her sleeves are unrolling 
     G#maj               CMaj
up past her head and her veins are all showing 
     G#maj               CMaj
not that she noticed she's thoroughly focused on 
 G#maj          CMaj
one old man who's laughing... 
 G#maj
who's laughing....
 G#maj  
who'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
