[Verse]
Cm B7
Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel,
B7 Cm
Never ending or beginning, on an ever spinning reel
Cm7 Ab
Like a snowball down a mountain, or a carnival balloon,
B7 Gm
Like a carousel that's turning, running rings around the moon
Cm Fm
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping, past the minutes of its face
G Cm7
And the world is like an apple, whirling silently in space
Csus2 Cm
Like the circles that you find, in the windmills of your mind
Cm B7
Like a tunnel that you follow, to a tunnel of its own,
B7 Cm
Down a hollow to a cavern, where the sun has never shone
Cm7 C7 Ab
Like a door that keeps revolving, in a half-forgotten dream,
B7 Gm
Or the ripples from a pebble, someone tosses in a stream
Cm Fm
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping, past the minutes of its face
G Cm7
And the world is like an apple, whirling silently in space
Csus2 Cm
Like the circles that you find, in the windmills of your mind
Cm Fm
Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head,
B7 Cm
Why did summer go so quickly? Was it something that you said?
Cm7 C7 Ab
Lovers walk along the shore, and leave their footprints in the sand,
D7 Gm
Is the sound of distant drumming, just the fingers of your hand?
C7 C7 Ab
Pictures hanging in a hallay, and the fragment of a song,
B7 Gm
Half-remembered names and faces, but to whom do they belong?
Cm B7
When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware,
B7 Cm
that the autumn leaves were turning, to the colour of her hair
Cm Fm
Like a circle in a spiral, a wheel within a wheel,
B7 Cm7
Never ending or beginning, on an ever spinning reel
Cm Gm
As the images unwind, like the circles that you find,
Cm
In the windmills of your mind
