Verse 1
A
D
Yesterday a child
A
D
A
came out to wander
D
A
D
E
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar,
A
D
A
fearful when the sky was full of thunder,
D
A
D
A
D
A
and tearful at the falling of a star.
And the seasons,
D
A
they go round and round,
and the painted ponies go
D
A
D
up and down,
D
A
D
We can't return,
we can only look behind
A
D
from where we came,
C#m
A
Bm
and go round and round and round
D
A
D
A
in a circle game.
A
D
A
from the season,
D
A
D
skated over ten clear
A
D
Words like, when you're older,
D
A
and promises of someday
D
A
make his dreams.
And the seasons,
D
A
they go round and round,
A
D
A
We're captive on the carousel of time
we can only look behind
A
D
from where we came
A
Bm
And go round and round and round
D
A
D
A
in the circle game
D
A
16 springs and 16 summers gone now,
D
A
D
cartwheels turn to carwheels
E
A
through the town, and they
D
A
Till you drag your feet too slow,
D
A
D
A
the circle's down
D
A
And the seasons, they go round and round
A
D
A
We're captive on the carousel of time
we can only look behind
A
D
from where we came
A
D
Bm
And go round and round and round
D
A
D
in the circle game
D
A
D
now the boy is twenty.

and plenty
A
D
A
And the seasons, they go round and round
D
A
And the faded ponies go up and down
D
A
We're captured on the carousel of time
we can only look behind
A
D
from where we came
A
D
Bm
And go round and round and round
D
A
D
A
in the circle game
we can only look behind
A
D
from where we came,
D
E
D
round in a circle.
