Intro: 



Verse 
         D            Am7             D 
With his fool's gold stacked up all around him 
  D                    Am7          D 
From a killing in the market on the war 
     A                 G            D          G        
The children left King Midas there, as they found him 
        D                    Am7                D 
In his counting house where nothing counts but more 


        A                    G          D 
And he thought he heard the echos of a penny whistle band 
         A               G          D 
And the laughter from a distant caravan 
         A                G              D         G 
And the brightly painted line of circus wagons in the sand 
  D                 C*        C/B*  C*   D    
Fading through the door into summer 

  
            D            Am7                 D 
Well, it's travel onto "maybe next year" 's places 
      D              Am7           D 
As a trade-in for a name upon the door 
        A              G              D        G 
And he pays for every year he cannot buy back with his tears 
       D                     Am7             D 
As he finds out there's been no one keeping score
