          OK, so you wanna learn how to play this song.   
          You better note that I'm not including all the violin parts and the like.  
          This will make this version of the song sound a bit different than the 
          original, perhaps a bit more empty, but I added a chord for the verse 
          which does not exist in the original to fill out the sound, for you 
          purists, wyclef is basically fooling around with the intro form throughout 
          the verses.  
          
          This is what wyclef is playing while he talks

          Intro: (spoken)  
          
          I dedicate this record, "The Carnival" to all you brothers takin' long 
          trips down south, Virginia, Baltimore, all around the world, and your girl 
          gets this message that you ain't comin' back. She's sittin' back in the 
          room, the lights are off, she's cryin ', and then my voice comes in POW!, 
          in the middle of the night, and this is what I told her for you:  
          
          Chorus: (sung)  
          Emaj 
          Every time I make a run,  
                                    E1 
          girl, you turn around and cry  
            E2         Emaj 
          I ask myself why, oh why  
          E1   E2            Emaj                  
          See, you must understand, 
                              E1 
          I can't work a 9 to 5  
             E2          Emaj   
          So I'll be gone 'til November  
          None         E2 
          Said I'll be gone 'til November,  
          I'll be gone 'til November  
          Yo, tell my girl, yo, I'll be gone 'til November  
          Emaj 
          I'll be gone 'til November, I'll be gone 'til November  
          Yo, tell my girl, yo, I'll be gone 'til November  
          E2 
          January, February, March, April, May  
          I see you cryin', but girl, I can't stay  
          Emaj 
          I'll be gone 'til November, I'll be gone 'til November  
          A1(Let ring) 
          And give a kiss to my mother  
          
          Verse 1: (sung)  
          Emaj 
          When I come back, there'll be no need to clock  
          I'll have enough money to buy out blocks  
          Tell my brother, "Go to school in September"  
          So he won't mess up in summer school in the summer  
          E1                     E2  
          Tell my cousin, Jerry, wear his condom  
          Emaj 
          If he don't wear condom, he'll see a redrum  
          Woh oh oh oh  
          You sucker MC's, you got no flow  
          I heard your style,  
          you're s-o s-o  
          
          Chorus  
          
          Verse 2: (rap)  
          Emaj 
          I had to flip nuttin' and turn it into somethin'  
          Hip-hop turns to the future rock when I smash a punk (BING!)  
          E1                        E2 
          Commit treason, then I'll have a reason to hunt you down  
          Emaj 
          It's only right, it's rappin' season  
          Yeah, you with the loud voice, posin' like you're top choice  
          Your voice, I'll make a hearse out of your Rolls Royce  
          Besides, I got my girl to remember  
          And I'll commit it that I'll be back in November  
          
          Chorus  
          
          Emaj(fade) 
          I know the hustle's hard, but we gotta enterprise, the carnival  ==================
