Circles Chords & Lyrics - Eric Bibb

T[C#]his ol' boy lived down the road from me
Us[F#]ed to drive a beat-up Dod[C#]ge

Well, he showed up drunk as hell one night
Pa[F#]rked in my gar[G#]age
I [Cm]had to ask him how'd he get so lost
Th[F#]at you can't find your way [D#]home

He s[F#]aid:
I've been r[G#]unnin' 'round in circ[C#]les so lon[F#]g
I didn't[G#] know ehere else t[C#]o go
[F#]I've been r[G#]unnin' 'round in circl[C#]es so lon[F#]g
I didn't kn[G#]ow where else [C#]to go

S[C#]ee, his wife she left him
An' took the kids [F#]
An' he never was the same[C#]
I guess they were all that he'd been livin' for [F#]
An'he shouldered all the bl[G#]ame
[C#]Well he always wondered what made her give up
[F#]God, if he'd only kn[D#]own

[F#]She'd be r[G#]unnin' 'round in ci[C#]rcles so lo[F#]ng
She didn't know eh[G#]ere else to [C#]go
S[F#]he'd been [G#]runnin' 'round in ci[C#]rcles so lon[F#]g
She didn't know e[G#]here else to [C#]go

INTERLUDE (F# G# C#) x4

W[C#]ell, this ol' boy lived down the road from me
[F#] [G#] #C
Today they laid him in the ground
H[C#]e drove that ol' Dodge right off the river bridge [F#]
Without even slowin' dow[G#]n
[C#]And he left a letter he wrote to his ol' man[F#]
Said: I just lost con[D#]trol

I[F#]'ve been r[G#]unnin' 'round i[C#]n circles so lon[F#]g
I didn't[G#] know ehere else t[C#]o go
[F#]I've been r[G#]unnin' 'round in circl[C#]es so lon[F#]g
I didn't kn[G#]ow where else [C#]to go
