Intro RE LA MIm MIm/FA# SOL
RE LA MIm MIm/FA# SOL
Fifty years after the fair the picture I have is so clear
Underneath the clouds in the air rose the tyrlon and the perisphere
MIm LA SOL RE
And that for me was the finest of scenes
MIm LA SOL RE LA SOL
That perfect world across the river in queens
RE LA MIm MIm/FA# SOL
Fifty years after the fair I drink from a different cup
But it does no good to compare 'cause nothing ever measures up
MIm LA SOL RE
I guess just for a second we thought
MIm LA SOL RE LA SOL
That all good things would rise to the top

But how beautiful it was - 'tomorrow'
SIm SOL RE LA
We'll never have a day of sorrow

We got through the '30's, but our belts were tight
We conceived of a future with no hope in sight
MIm MIm/FA# DO
We've got decades ahead of us to get it right
MIm SIb DO RE SOL
I swear - fifty years after the fair

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