Verse 1
Here's a fair (G major) grounds song,
it's a carnival song,
it's a root, a root song.
Oh, (D major) (G major) (C major) (D major)
(G major) it's all up from Florida
at the start of the spring
The trucks and the trailers will be (D major) windin'
Like a bul (G major) let we'll shoot
for (D major) the (C major) carnival route
(G major) We're followin' them dusty old
(D major) firegrounds a (G major) -c allin' (C major) (G major)
From the Michigan mud
past the Wisconsin sun
Cross that Minnesota border
(D major) keepin' scramblin'
Through the (G major) clear county lakes
and the (C major) lumberjack land (G major) s
We're followin' them dusty old
(D major) fairgrounds a (G major) -callin' (C major) (G major)
Hit the foggo on the jump
and down to Aberdeen
Cross them old black hills
(D major) keepin' rollin'
Through the (G major) cobb country towns
and the (C major) sands of old Montana (G major)
Followin' them fairgrounds
(D major) they're callin' (G major)
(D major) (G major) (C major) (D major)
(G major)
As the white line on the highway
sails under your wheels
I gazed from the trail of (D major) wind a -laughin'
Oh, our (G major) clothes they was torn
but the colors they was bright
Followin' them dusty old
(D major) fairgrounds a (G major) -callin' (C major) (G major)
It's a many a friend that
(C major) follows (G major) the band
The jugglers, the hustlers, the (D major) gamblers
I spend (G major) my time with the (C major) for
tune tellin' (G major) kind
Followin' them fair
(D major) grounds they're callin'
(G major) (D major)
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major)
It's pound
down the rails
and it's tied down the tents
Get that canvas flag a (D major) -flyin'
Let the (G major) caterpillar spin,
let the (C major) fast wheel wind
(G major) Hollowin' the fairgrounds (D major) a -callin'
(G major) Well, it's rollin' to town,
straight to the fairgrounds
Just behind the posters
that are (D major) hangin'
And it's (G major) fillin' up every space
with a differ (C major) ent kind (G major) of face
Hollowin' the fairground (D major) s a -callin'
(G major)

Verse 2
(G major) Get the
gants and girls in front
Get the (E minor) gamblin' (C major) (G major) show behind
Get that old music box a -bangin'
(D major) Hear them (G major) kids' faces,
smiles up and (E minor) down the (C major) midway aisles
(G major) Following them firegrounds (D major) a -callin'
(G major) It's a draggin' on down
by the deadline in the town
Hit the old highway by (D major) the morning
And (G major) ride yourself blind
for the next (C major) town (G major) on time
Following them fireground
(D major) s a -callin' (G major) (D major) (G major)
As the harmonicas wind
in the (C major) lonesome (G major) night time
Drinking red wine as we're (D major) rolling
Many a (G major) turn I've turned,
many a (C major) lesson I've (G major) learned
From following the fairground (D major) s of calling
(G major) (D major)
(G major) And it's rolled back
down to St. Petersburg
Tied down the trailers in Cam (D major) phor
And the (G major) money that we made
we'll pay for (G major) the space
Come following them dusty
old (D major) fairgrounds a -callin'
(G major) (D major) (G major)
