on the bass, the bass plays the Bb, but the organ doesn't. Likewise, the A isn't

There are other chords in the song, but the fingering on them isn't as important
as for these, so you can use whatever is comfortable.
Most of the song, especially at the start, has an "oom-pah-pah" feel (which kind
of makes sense, since the song is in 3/4.) To play the chords correctly, play the

Intro
FA/DO FA+/DO# REm FA7/MIb
It was late one fall night at a fairground near town
SIbMaj7/RE SIbmMaj7/DO# FA/LAWhen Esther first saw the Armenian man
Who grovelled toward her and stood by her side
SOLm7 DO7With a bucket that swung in his hand (Bass joins in here)
FA/DO FA+/DO# REm FA7/MIb
His grin stretched the folds of his pasty white cheeks
SIbMaj7 SIbmMaj7 FA/LAAnd his lips hurled a dollop of murk on the curb
And the lights from the rides showed a mischievous sparkle
SOLm7 DO7That flashed in his hollow eyed stare
(same)
He said "Little girl, you can chop off my legs
And then peel off my socks if you want to.
But I'd rather you took this old puppet from me
That I hold in my pail as we speak."
(same except transition chords at end of verse)
And he stood looking down at the innocent girl
And she stared at the bucket bewildered
Til he lifted the doll for the young girl to see
Gm7b5/Db Eb <--transition chords
And a giant smile grew on his face
SOL# LAdim SIbm MIb
She saw the doll's eyes and she couldn't resist
And she thanked the man quickly and ran to the church
SOL# LAdim SIbm MIbAnd she burst through the door with puppet held high
REdim DO# SIbmAnd a hush filled the chapel, and the people looked mean

Through the window of the church a storm began to rage
And Esther knew the time had come to flee
She scurried down the aisle toward the doorway in the distance
And out into the rainstorm where she felt she would be free
But the wind was blowing harder
And her skirt began to billow
Until finally her feet began to lift
And she rose above the people and the houses
and the chimneys
SOLm7b5/DO# MIbAnd Esther and the doll were set adrift
SOL# LAdim SIbm MIb REdim DO#
Floating higher over the hills, and the valleys and treetops

Soaring and turning suspended on air
REdim DO# SIbmWith the earth far below them they'd tumble

She glanced about the village sure to find the evil men
FAmWho rob and pillage in the darkest hour of night
MIbmNervously she fumbled for the pouch that held the
Puppet on her rump.
(Same)
Feeling quite outnumbered Esther hid behind
A nearby pile of lumber, where she waited
Till the dawn
Cause it would have been a blunder to
Succumb to a hoodlum on the prowl
RE LA/DO# DO SOL/SI
When the morning came, she wandered through the streets
SIb RE/LA MI7/SOL# SOLmAlong the chilly lake that lay beside the town
At last a peaceful moment, but she thought she heard a sound
A7 A6 A Dm7 (arpeggiation)
It was an angry mob of joggers coming up to knock her down
(same chords as verses)
As Esther stood and shook her head
The joggers were approaching
And she knew she had no choice left but to swim
As the frosty water sank its bitter teeth into her hide
She tried to slide the heavy clothing from her skin
Naked now she made her way toward the shore
When suddenly she felt a tiny tugging at her toe.
And the puppet she'd fogotten wrapped its tiny
Little arms around her ankle and wouldn't let her go.
Ab etc...
The waves seemed to open and swallow her whole
As the doll pulled her down through the eerie green deep
And the sound of the laughing old man filled her ears
As she drifted away to a tranquil
E (flying jam)
And motionless sleep.
Cool guitar solo over flying jam:

Hold the B chord

And she began to plummet earthward

Landed in the nasty part of town

..repeats)
Trey plays : (repeat each as
..necessary, listen to a song)

She glanced about the village sure
..to find the evil men
FAmWho rob and pillage in the darkest
..hour of night
MIbmNervously she fumbled for the
..pouch that held the
MImPuppet on her rump.
(Same)
Feeling quite outnumbered Esther
..hid behind
A nearby pile of lumber, where she
..waited
Till the dawn
Cause it would have been a blunder
..to
Succumb to a hoodlum on the prowl
RE LA/DO#
When the morning came, she
.. wandered through the streets
SIb RE/LAAlong the chilly lake that lay
MI7/SOL# SOLm.. beside the town
At last a peaceful moment, but she
MI7/SOL# LA.. thought she heard a sound
A7 A6
.. A Dm7
..(arpeggiation)
It was an angry mob of joggers
..coming up to knock her down
(same chords as verses)
As Esther stood and shook her head
The joggers were approaching
And she knew she had no choice
..left but to swim
As the frosty water sank its
..bitter teeth into her hide
She tried to slide the heavy
..clothing from her skin
Naked now she made her way toward
..the shore
When suddenly she felt a tiny
..tugging at her toe.
And the puppet she'd fogotten
..wrapped its tiny
Little arms around her ankle and
SOLm7b5/DO# MIb..wouldn't let her go.
Ab etc...
The waves seemed to open and
..swallow her whole
As the doll pulled her down
..through the eerie green deep
And the sound of the laughing old
..man filled her ears
As she drifted away to a tranquil
E (flying jam)
And motionless sleep.
Cool guitar solo over flying jam:
