C                              Dm
She took off a silver locket
F                                    C
she said remember me by this
C                                  G
She put her hand in my pocket
F G         Dm
I got a keepsake and a kiss
C                                                 Dm
And in the roar of the dust and diesel

F G Dm
But something must have made me stay

[Chorus]

A# C             Gm                                                  F            A#
And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades

Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades
