    C#m
The lights still in our eyes,
                                     E
We're leaving this old fairground behind,
        F#
It's a dream that's growing cold.
     C#m
The circus never dies,
                               E
The act forever haunts these skies,
   F#
I know we cannot stay.

Chorus:
A         B     C#m
Farewell to the fairground,
G#m                 B
these rides aren't working any more.
A        B       C#m
Goodbye to this dead town,
G#m       B
until the ice begins to thaw.

This place used to gleam
I see it in my hopeful dreams
Now I have to get away
We move towards the stars
And all that we touch becomes ours
Let's keep warm 'til it's day

Chorus

A           B          C#m
We'll head south just hold my hand now,
G#m              B
I feel like I'm casting off my clothes,
         A                          B         C#m
And I'm running through the snow towards the sunset,
        G#m          B
And I'm always with you

E
Keep on running, keep keep on running
         B
There's no place like home,
        C#m
there's no place like home. - x4

E
Keep on running, keep keep on running
        F#m
There's no place like home,
        G#m
there's no place like home. - x2

Chorus

We'll head south, just hold my hand now
I feel like I'm casting off my clothes
And I'm running through the snow towards the sunset
And I'm always with you
