Biography:
Current 93 is an eclectic British music group, working since the early 1980s in experimental-based musical forms. The band was founded in London, UK in 1982 by David Tibet (né David Michael Bunting, renamed 'Tibet' by Genesis P-Orridge sometime prior to forming the group).
Tibet has been the only constant in the group, though Steven Stapleton (of Nurse With Wound) has appeared on nearly every Current 93 release. Michael Cashmore has also been a constant contributor since Thunder Perfect Mind.

Title: This Carnival Is Dead And Gone
Am
Am
Dear sir dear lady
G Em
This carnival is dead and gone
Am G Bm Am
And never anyway alas this party never yet began
The chairs and tables dust of dust
G Em Am
Yes verydust of veryrust of verymust and farewelltrust
G Bm Am
I thought I saw you in the crowd dear heart
G Em
You turned away from me and then you dissolved into light
Am Bm
The broken lights and faded buntings
G Fmaj7
Call to us all the inmost light
G
And don't glare wide your eyes in wonder
Em Fmaj7
They will flick back inside your mind
G
And on the bonescreen of your skull
Bm Am
They watch no musical salutes
G Em Am
So thoroughly modern now we are
But the last reel of all time
G Am
The inmost night
Its frames are glared and slow and out of focus
G Em Am
Valentino Vallee Moss all dead!
The inmost night
G Bm Am
And the little bells go tinkle
And your eyes begin to twinkle
G Em
And the joints and sinews crack
Am G
It's the expansion of your mind death
Death
Death
Death
Fmaj7 Am
The inmost night
G Em Am
The cat's face glares from shiny card
The deadcat from my past
G Bm Am
You tumble you froth and fun forever
Fmaj7 Am
An orchestra from another time
G Em
Another world all dead
Am G Bm Am
The churchbells silent the rainstained glass of God is smashed
And you take your choice you sup with the devil
G Em
You choke on your pride for ever and ever
Fmaj7 G Bm Am
My memory of my inmost light it tumbles froth and fun forever
G
Vulvaic memories imagined of my would-be-life
Em
Well that won't be
Am
And that won't be
And that won't be
G Bm
And that won't be
Fmaj7
And for my troubles and my pain
G Em
And for the losses and the wains
Am
I get a picture in my mind
G Bm Am
The slyly smily smiling kiss
G
Of your sweet heart and face
Em Am
And your legs in some final benediction
G
Your inmost warmheart says ta-ra
Bm Am
And I wished to die inside of you
G Em
And push up into your heart so violently that
Am G
Face to face with matrix creatrix am
Bm Am
The inmost light
The inmost night
A last tip:
Intead of playing Bm Am, you can also play Bm Am G Am instead (all with short strums of course).
