Fifty years after the fair/Aimee Mann

Intro: D A Em Em/F# G

D A Em Em/F# G

Fifty years after the fair the picture I have is so clear

Underneath the clouds in the air rose the tyrlon and the perisphere

Em A G D

And that for me was the finest of scenes

Em A G D A G

That perfect world across the river in queens

D A Em Em/F# G

Fifty years after the fair I drink from a different cup

But it does no good to compare 'cause nothing ever measures up

Em A G D

I guess just for a second we thought

Em A G D A G

That all good things would rise to the top

chorus:

Bm G D

But how beautiful it was - 'tomorrow'

Bm G D A

We'll never have a day of sorrow

Em Em/F# G A

We got through the '30's, but our belts were tight

We conceived of a future with no hope in sight

Em Em/F# C

We've got decades ahead of us to get it right

Em Bb C D G

I swear - fifty years after the fair

[solo]

D A Em Em/F# G 2x

Em A G D

Em A G D A G

D A Em Em/F# G

Fifty years after the fair I live in tomorrow town

Even on a wing and a prayer The future never came around

Em A G D

It hurts to even think of those days

Em A G D A G

The damage we do by the hopes that we raise

[chorus]

A Em Em/F# G D [repeat]
