[Verse 1]
D Bm G
Sun climbs toward high noon
D Bm G
Glints metallic off the bowl of the spoon
D F#m
Sliding through the air toward parted lips

Watch the expression when the straight taste hits

Face crumples, tongue’s quickly withdrawn

I hate to tell you but the candy man’s gone

Oh, sweet fantasia of the safe home
D Bm G
Where nobody has to scrape for honey at the bottom of the comb
D F#m
Where every actor understands the scene
G A
and nobody ever means to be mean
Bm F#m Em
Catch it in a dream, catch it in a song
G A D Bm
Seek it on the street, you’ll find the candy man’s gone

I hate to tell you but the candy man’s gone

[Verse 3]
D Bm G
In the bar, in the Senate, in the alley, in the study
D Bm G
Pimping dreams of riches for everybody
D F#m
Something for nothing, new lamps for old
G A
and the streets will be platinum, never mind gold
Bm F#m Em
Well hey, pass it on
G A D Bm
Misplaced your faith and the candy man’s gone
G A D
I hate to tell you but the candy man’s gone
