chorus rhythm (can't hear this very well)
G Em Bm
In the blistering heat of the Asbury pier
A
we sat quiet as monks on the Ferris wheel
G Em
Until looking down at the waltzer
Bm
and out at the sea
A
I asked her, did it ever have that recurring fantasy
G Em
where you push little kids
Bm
from the tops of the ride
A
she shook her head no
I said oh, neither do I
G Em
and with my grandmother's ring
Bm
I went down on one knee
A
and the subsequent catastrophe
Bm (strum really fast)
has since haunted me
like a fiberglass ghost
Verse again
Chorus again but its just the chords the second half of it
