[A] Yesterdayx a [D] childx came out to [A] wonderx
[A] Caughtx a dragon[D]flyx inside a [E] jarx
[A] Fearfulx when the [D] skyx was full of [F#m] thunderx
And t[D]earfulx at the f[A]allingx [E] ofx a [A] starx
[A] Thenx the child moved [D] tenx times 'round the [A] seasonsx
[A] Skatedx over [D] tenx clear frozen [E] streamsx
[A] Wordsx like, when you're o[D]lder,x must ap[F#m]peasex him
And [D] promisesx of [A] somedayx [E] makex his [A] dreamsx
[CHORUS]
[A] Andx the seasons, they go '[E]roundx and '[A]roundx
[A]Andx the painted ponies go [E] upx and [A] downx
We're c[D]apturedx on a carousel of [A] timex
[D] Wex can't return, we can only look [F#m] behindx from where we [D] camex
[D] Andx go '[F#m]roundx and 'round and '[D]roundx in the [E] circlex [A] gamex
[A] Sixteenx springs and [D] sixteenx summers gon[A]exx now
[A]Cartwheelsx turn to c[D]arx wheels through the [E] townx
[A] Andx they tell him, take your [D] timex it won't be [F#m] longx now
'Till you [D] dragx your feet to [A] slowx the [E] circlesx [A] downx
[PLAY CHORUS]
[A]Sox the years spin by a[D]ndx now the boy [A] isx twenty
[A]Thoughx his dreams have lost some g[D]randeurx coming [E] truex
[A] There'llx be new dreams, maybe [D] betterx dreams and [F#m] plentyx
Befo [D] rex the last re[A]volvingx [E] yearx is [A] throughx
[PLAY CHORUS]
PLAY LAST LINE OF CHORUS AGAIN
