Circles





Capo 3

1st Verse
C E C G
Tell me something I don't need to know
Come on baby, yeah, we'll take it slow
Moments replay as I fall asleep

Ever after but we’re out of time
Something out of a nursery rhyme
It’s getting late but I won’t go to bed

Chorus:
One day it won't be true
Another day just to be with you
And we're falling into circles
We've left behind

These pictures move my mind
Something else I'd rather put aside
Cause we're dancing in little circles
We've left behind

2nd Verse
The afternoon spent and it’s already gone
Easy going like the day you were born
Clouds are crowding above us, no sunshine

There you see outside's getting wetter
Sorry to tell you but I don't like the weather
Well, they say some things get better over time

Chorus:
Someday it won’t be true
I won’t have a million thoughts of you
But I fear my mind’s in circles
All the time

Your picture in my mind
Something I’d better push aside
Else I’m dancing in circles
We've left behind

Suddenly





Capo 4

C (X32X1X) A/C?(XX2X1X) G? (32XX1X) E? (X2XX3X)

Verse
Some days when I am careful, though I am cautious
I often think of you
But who's to say this is an end or a bereavement
Of something new

Well I get up, I get up
Every morning just to see
A separate line of direction
I'm stuck in between

Bridge
Dm7 Am Dm7 G
I hardly know
How this will go

Chorus
C Am Dm7 G
Suddenly, I find that no real words will fill me
Every day goes by, I wonder why I can't see anything
But every moment I'm with you, it's suddenly spring again
Suddenly I feel like I'm...changed

2nd Verse
Sometimes when I am tired, when nothing goes my way
I feel so frustrated
But you say, "tomorrow will surely be a better day"
You laugh it off somehow.

But I get up, I keep up
Some days are harder than the last
The room feels so much warmer
I'm stuck in the past
A thingy (5055XX) A minor thingy (5054XX)
Can’t do much when each day is just practice for the day after

nothing like the taste of boredom to keep your spirits dry

even work horses get their turn but why am I still here

when the grass is so much greener on the other side?


Bm C
it won’t do much to have me breaking my back to keep every thing in line

it won’t do at all to have me just standing still here

So I’ll run away from today cuz I know it won’t be the same for too long
24 hours to get away from yesterday and move on just move on

The same old story



Capo 3
Verse:

G Em
Well I was wrong and you were right
But we both knew that all would end that night
Well nothings new and everything is old
The same old story a thousand times told

Bridge:

C2 Em
Why do you gotta be the one
Who's always right
When all I want to do is
Patch things up tonight

Chorus:

G C
I never meant to hurt you
Even though you'd hardly let me

G C D
I never meant to love you
Even though you'd hardly let me


2nd verse:

G Em
Well I don't care, what's done is done
Can't do much when all you've wanted was to run
Change of cast, yet the same old scene
The same old story like it always has been

Time or Gravity

Gravity by the Jays

Capo 5
(Intro)
C2 Em

(Verse 1)
Gravity keeps me down,
grounded to the bare floor.
Whenever you’re not around,
I can’t move any more.

Time keeps moving on,
as the world passes me by.
I’m crushed under the weight of
opportunity.

Blindly, staring out
lost in my own conscience
and I forget what to do now
I can't think anymore

I know that I need you here
cuz you're the only one that stands still
I need some motivation
to help me on my way


(Chorus)
And I’m caught spinning in circles.
I’m trapped beneath this ceiling.
Just stuck holding the world up,
Unsatisfied with what I’m feeling.
I’m tired of indecision
lost in my lack of direction
But all this shit just makes sense
whenever you are with me

(Intro)

(Verse 2)
a subtle nudge guides me now
Unseen forces take me
I’m moved by this attraction
like time or gravity

I can't help myself
shattering off these shackles
i'm not scared anymore of
chasing after you

(Chorus)
I’m not still anymore
but steady moving forward
and now that I've found my drive
I'm breaking free of all my tethers.
I’m tired of indecision
lost in my lack of direction
But all this shit just makes sense
whenever I am with you
