Carnival In Harlem

          C           G
There's a carnival in Harlem
         Em           D
where my lady reads a gospel
       C   G  Em G  D
From a bal-co-ny of bones
        C            G
And I'm on my way to see her
        Em             D
for as long as I'm without her
              C   G   Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home

Em Am C G
Em Am C G

[Verse 1]
Em         Am           C     G
Certainly, I agree this feels right
Em           Am        C     G
And your invitation tempts me so
Em           Am              C   
Normally, a former me would stay the
G
 night
Em            Am           C     G
Oh, but there is somewhere I must go

[Chorus]
          C           G
There's a carnival in Harlem
         Em           D
where my lady reads a gospel
       C   G  Em G  D
From a bal-co-ny of bones
Continues after the ad
        C            G
And I'm on my way to see her
        Em             D
for as long as I'm without her
              C  G    Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home


[Verse 2]
Em                 Am            
Lately, I've been half alive and 
C   G
wounded
Em              Am             C
Ravaged by the wolves and left 
    G
for dead
Em               Am            C 
Oh, it's true I really hate to do 
  G
this
Em*                    Am*       
But there is somewhere I must go 
        C G
instead

[Chorus]
          C           G
There's a carnival in Harlem
         Em           D
where my lady reads a gospel
       C   G  Em G  D
From a bal-co-ny of bones
        C            G
And I'm on my way to see her
        Em             D
for as long as I'm without her
              C  G    Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home

[Bridge]
Em     G                Am
She believes in Haunted Things
    C              Em          C 
And tells me I'm a fascinating 
       D
liar
Em     G               Am
We believe in Haunted Things
   C               Em          C 
I tell you we're a building on 
      D
fire

[Chorus]
          C           G
There's a carnival in Harlem
         Em           D
where my lady reads a gospel
       C   G  Em G  D
From a bal-co-ny of bones
        C            G
And I'm on my way to see her
        Em             D
for as long as I'm without her
              C  G    Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home

[Other]
              C  G    Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home
(slower)      C  G    Em    G  D
there will be no such thing as home
