Sun   down, sun    down

They're taking all the tents down

The carnival trains' leavin' town

D                             G/B         C

 We won't be dancing together on the high wire

D                                G/B     C        

 Facing the lions with you at my side anymore

D                          G/B           C

 We won't be breathing the smoke and the fire

     Gsus4 G

On a midway

D   

 Hangin' from the trapeze

          G/B              C

My wrists waitin' for your wrists

D                      G/B            C

 Two daredevils high upon the wall of death

D                                  G/B            C 

 You throwin' the knife that lands inches from my heart

Gsus4 G

Sun down

Em

Moon rise, moon rise

    D                               C    G   C G

The light that was in your eyes has gone away

Em              

Daybreak, daybreak

    D                                 C     G   C G

The thing in you that made me ache has gone to stay





D                                  G/B   C

 We'll be riding the train without you tonight

    D                   

The train that keeps on movin'

                G/B                   C

Its black smoke scorching the evening sky

D                                       G/B                   C

 A million stars shining above us like every soul livin' and dead

          D

Has been gathered together by a God to

       G/B            C

sing a hymn over your bones

  

Gsus4 G   Gsus4 G

Sun down, sun down

Gsus4 G       Gsus4 G  

Empty are the fairgrounds

C                              G Gsus4 G

 Where are you now my handsome Billy?
