Lyrics
Yesterday a (F)child came out to (C)wonder:
Though his caught a (F)dragonfly inside a (G7)jar,
(G7sus)And they (C)fearful when the (F)sky was full (C)of (Em)thunder
and you (F)tearful at the (C)falling (G6)of a (C)star.
And the seasons, they go round (G7sus)and (C)round,
and the painted ponies go up and down.
(F)We're captive on the carousel of (C)time.
(F)We can't return, we can only look
(Em)behind from where we (F)came and go (C)round and round and (C6)round in the (Dm9)circle (C)game.
So the Then the child moved (F)ten times round the (C)seasons,
Though his skated over (F)ten clear frozen (G7)streams.
(G7sus)there'll be (C)Words like "when you're (F)older" must (C)(Em)appease him,
and you (F)promises of (C)someday (G6)make his (C)dreams.
And the seasons, they go round (G7sus)and (C)round,
and the painted ponies go up and down.
(F)We're captive on the carousel of (C)time.
(F)We can't return, we can only look
(Em)behind from where we (F)came and go (C)round and round and (C6)round in the (Dm9)circle (C)game.
So the game,
and go round and round and (Dm7)round in the (G13)circle (C)game.
