GEvery year when summer comes around
CThey stretch a banner 'cross the main street in town
GYou can feel somethin's happenin' in the Dair
GWell, from Carol's house up on Telegraph Hill
CYou can see the lights going up out in Soldiers Field
GGetting ready, Dfor the county Gfair
GCounty fair, county fair,
CEverybody in town'll be there
GSo come on, hey we're goin' down tDhere
G(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair
CCome win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
Baby, dGown Dat the country fair
GNow you'll be hangin' tight when we hit the top
CAnd that rollercoaster's ready to drop
GAnd your braggin', how you wasn't even scDared
GWell baby you know I just love the sound
COf that pipe organ on the merry-go-round
Baby, dGown  Dat the county Gfair
GCounty fair, county fair,
CEverybody in town'll be there
GSo come on, hey we're goin' down tDhere
G(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair
CCome win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
Baby, dGown  Dat the country Gfair
GAt the north end of the field they set up a stand
CAnd they got a little rock and roll band
GPeople dancin' out in the open Dair
GIt's James Young and the Immortal Ones
CTwo guitars, (baby) bass and drums
Just rocGkin', Ddown at the county Gfair
G(well) County fair, county fair
CEverybody in town'll be there
GSo come on, we're goin' down tDhere
GLittle girl with the long blond hair
CCome win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
Baby, dGown  Dat the county Gfair
GNow it's getting late before we head back to town
CWe let that fortune wheel spin around
GCome on mister tell me what's waiting out tDhere
GOn my way out I steal a kiss in the dark
CHope I can remember where our car's parked
Baby, oGut  Dat the county Gfair
GNow off down the highway there's the last stream of cars
CWe sit a while in my front yard
GWith the radio playin' soft and lDow
GI pull Carol close to my heart
CAnd I lean back and stare up at the stars
Oh I wGish, I'd never hDave to let this momenGt go

Every year when summer comes around

They stretch a banner 'cross the main street in town

G D

You can feel somethin's happenin' in the air

Well, from Carol's house up on Telegraph Hill

You can see the lights going up out in Soldiers Field

G D G

Getting ready, for the county fair

County fair, county fair,

Everybody in town'll be there

G D

So come on, hey we're goin' down there

(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair

Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears

G D

Baby, down at the country fair

Now you'll be hangin' tight when we hit the top

And that rollercoaster's ready to drop

G D

And your braggin', how you wasn't even scared

Well baby you know I just love the sound

Of that pipe organ on the merry-go-round

G D G

Baby, down at the county fair

County fair, county fair,

Everybody in town'll be there

G D

So come on, hey we're goin' down there

(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair

Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears

G D G

Baby, down at the country fair

At the north end of the field they set up a stand

And they got a little rock and roll band

G D

People dancin' out in the open air

It's James Young and the Immortal Ones

Two guitars, (baby) bass and drums

G D G

Just rockin', down at the county fair

(well) County fair, county fair

Everybody in town'll be there

G D

So come on, we're goin' down there

Little girl with the long blond hair

Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears

G D G

Baby, down at the county fair

Now it's getting late before we head back to town

We let that fortune wheel spin around

G D

Come on mister tell me what's waiting out there

On my way out I steal a kiss in the dark

Hope I can remember where our car's parked

G D G

Baby, out at the county fair

Now off down the highway there's the last stream of cars

We sit a while in my front yard

G D

With the radio playin' soft and low

I pull Carol close to my heart

And I lean back and stare up at the stars

G D G

Oh I wish, I'd never have to let this moment go
