A A           D D                 A A
Yesterday a child came out to wonder
A A D D E E
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
A A D D F#m F#m
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
D D A A E E A A
And tearful at the falling of a star

A A D D A A
Then the child moved ten times 'round the seasons
A A D D E E
Skated over ten clear frozen streams
A A D D F#m F#m
Words like, when you're older, must appease him
D D A A E E A A
And promises of someday make his dreams

CHORUS:
A A E E A A
And the seasons, they go 'round and 'round
A A E E A A
And the painted ponies go up and down
D D A A
We're captured on a carousel of time
D D F#m F#m D D
We can't return, we can only look behind from where we came
D D F#m F#m D D E E A A
And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game

A A D D A A
Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
A A D D E E
Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
A A D D F#m F#m
And they tell him, take your time it won't be long now
D D A A E E A A
'Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down

PLAY CHORUS
A A D D A A
So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
A A D D E E
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
A A D D F#m F#m
There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
D D A A E E A A
Before the last revolving year is through

PLAY CHORUS
PLAY LAST LINE OF CHORUS AGAIN
