[Tuned to Drop C,G,C,F,A,D]
[Heavy Intro with deep repeated vocals]
(There are carnival games,
And I can't stop playing.
There are carnival games,
And I can't stop playing.)

[Verse]
I spend most of my time
In a crazy carnival
Of the mind.

It's a real freak show
Everywhere I go
The whole thing is out of line

[Verse 2][Faster palm muted guitars]
There are carnival games
And I can't stop playing
And losing
(And losing)

There's mirror mazes
In haunted places
And Frightful things
With distorted faces

[Chorus Fast paced]
It's a roller coaster
running all the time
never slowing down
I hope i get thrown off.
[1/2 time]
It's like a baaaad trip!
It's a real shitshow!
It's all happening inside my head
(Inside my head)

[Verse 3]
There are scary clowns
And some creepy carnies.
That keep hanging around
(hangin' around)
Out by the tunnel of love
I rode with someone I loved
Who still lives in my head rent-free

[Bridge/Breakdown]
Inside a tricky funhouse
That I've been trying to
Find my way out of.

For the last ten years
And the harder I try
The deeper I get lost inside!

[Faster Chorus]
It's a roller coaster
running all the time
never slowing down
I hope i get thrown off.
[1/2 time]
It's like a baaaad trip!
It's a real shitshow!
It's all happening inside my head
(Inside my head)

[Fast paced outro with repeating lyrics]
There are carnival games, (carnival games)

And I can't stop playing, (can't stop playing)

There are carnival games, (carnival games)

And I can't stop plaaayiiing!

There are carnival games
And I can't stop playing!
THERE ARE CARNIVAL GAMES AND I CAN'T STOP PLAYING!
