G
Every year when summer comes around
C
They stretch a banner 'cross the main street in town
G                                        D
You can feel somethin's happenin' in the air

G
Well, from Carol's house up on Telegraph Hill
C
You can see the lights going up out in Soldiers Field
G             D                G
Getting ready, for the county fair


G
County fair, county fair,
C
Everybody in town'll be there
G                                 D
So come on, hey we're goin' down there
G
(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair
C
Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
       G   C
Baby, down at the country fair


G
Now you'll be hangin' tight when we hit the top
C
And that rollercoaster's ready to drop
G                                        D
And your braggin', how you wasn't even scared
G
Well baby you know I just love the sound
C
Of that pipe organ on the merry-go-round
       G   C
Baby, down at the county fair


G
County fair, county fair,
C
Everybody in town'll be there
G                                 D
So come on, hey we're goin' down there
G
(hey) Little girl with the long blond hair
C
Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
       G   C
Baby, down at the country fair


G
At the north end of the field they set up a stand
C
And they got a little rock and roll band
G                              D
People dancin' out in the open air
G
It's James Young and the Immortal Ones
C
Two guitars, (baby) bass and drums
        G      D
Just rockin', down at the county fair


G
(well) County fair, county fair
C
Everybody in town'll be there
G                             D
So come on, we're goin' down there
G
Little girl with the long blond hair
C
Come win your daddy one of them stuffed bears
       G   D
Baby, down at the county fair


G
Now it's getting late before we head back to town
C
We let that fortune wheel spin around
G                                          D
Come on mister tell me what's waiting out there
G
On my way out I steal a kiss in the dark
C
Hope I can remember where our car's parked
       G  D
Baby, out at the county fair


G
Now off down the highway there's the last stream of cars
C
We sit a while in my front yard
G                                D
With the radio playin' soft and low
G
I pull Carol close to my heart
C
And I lean back and stare up at the stars
      G               D 
Oh I wish, I'd never have to let this moment go
