Em                                       B7   
Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel   
                                                                  Em   
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel   
                                     E7                          Am7   
Like a snowball down a mountain or a carnival balloon   
                                D7                                       Gm7   
Like a carousel that's turning running rings around the moon 
                                            Cm7                                     F#5-/7   
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face  
                                    B7                                Gdim   
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space   
                                   B7                                     Em   
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind  
Em                                                             B7   
Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own   
                                                                          Em   
Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone  
                                  E7                                  Am7   
Like a door that keeps revolving in a half-forgotten dream   
                              D7                                      Gm7   
Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream  
                                            Cm7                                    F#m5-/7   
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face   
                                     B7                             Gdim   
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space  
                                    B7                                    Em   
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind 
Em                                                                             Am7   
Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head  
                                      D7                                      Gm7   
Why did summer go so quickly? Was it something that I said   
                              G7                                                   Cm7   
Lovers walk along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand  
                                   F#7                                        Bm   
Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand   
                                  E7                                       Am   
Pictures hanging in a hallway and the fragments of a song  
                                           D7                                   Gm7   
Half-remembered names and faces, but to whom do they belong   
                                        Cm7                           F#m5-/7   
When you knew that it was over, were you suddenly aware   
                                            B7                                Em   
That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of her hair   
                                                                B7   
Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel  
                                                                   Gdim   
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel   
                       Em                                         B7   
As the images unwind, like the circles that you find   
                                       Em   Am Em B7  Em   
In the windmills of your mind
