Am6 B7 Em/B
[Verse]

Like a wheel within a wheel

On an ever spinning reel

Like a snowball down a mountain

Like a carousel that's turning
Gmaj7
Running rings around the Moon
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Am6
Past the minutes of its face
B7
And the world is like an apple
Bbdim/C#
Whirling silently in space
B7
Like the circles that you find
Em/B
In the windmills of your mind
[Verse]
Em/G
Like a tunnel that you follow
B7/F#
To a tunnel of its own
[Verse]
B7/F#
Down a hollow to a cavern
Em/G
Where the sun has never shone
[Verse]
E7
Like a door that keeps revolving
Am7
In a half-forgotten dream
[Verse]
D7
Or the ripples from a pebble
Gmaj7
Someone tosses in a stream

Why did summer go so quickly?

Was it something that you said?
[Verse]
Gmaj7
Lovers walk along the shore
Cmaj7
And leave their footprints in the sand
[Verse]
F#7
Is the sound of distant drumming?
Bm
Just the fingers of your hand
[Verse]
E7
Pictures hanging in a hallway
Am
And the fragment of a song
[Verse]
D7
Half-remembered names and faces
Gmaj7
But to whom do they belong?
[Verse]
C7
When you knew that it was over
Am6
You were suddenly aware
B7
That the autumn leaves were turning
Em/B
To the color of her hair
[Verse]
Em/G
Like a circle in a spiral
B7/F#
A wheel within a wheel
[Verse]
B7/F#
Never ending or beginning
Bbdim/C#
On an ever spinning reel
[Coda]
Em/B
As the images unwind
B7
Like the circles that you find
Em/G
In the windmills of your mind
