  			G                    Gmaj7                   Am7 
All my life's a circle, sunrise and sundown 
   Am7 -   Am7/G          D7       G                       Gmaj7 
The moon rose through the night time, till the daybreak rolls around 
 G                    Gmaj7 /Gmaj6                Am7 
All my life's a circle, but I can't tell you why 
 Am7 -   Am7/G          D7        C  -       D7   G    
Seasons spinning round again, the years keep rolling by 
 
G                    Gmaj7                   Am7 
Seems like I've been here before, I can't remember when 
   Am7 -   Am7/G          D7       G                       Gmaj7 
But I've got this funny feeling, that we'll all get together again 
 G                   Gmaj7 /                     Am7 
There's no straight lines make up my life, all the roads have bends 
Am7 -   Am7/G          D7        C  -       D7   G    
There's no clear cut beginning, and sometimes no clear end 
 
G                    Gmaj7                   Am7 
I've found you a thousand times, I guess you've done the same 
   Am7 -   Am7/G          D7       G                       Gmaj7 
But then we lose each other, it's just like a children's game 
G                   Gmaj7 /Gmaj6                Am7 
But as I find you here again, the thought rolls through my mind 
Am7 -   Am7/G          D7        C  -       D7   G    
Our love is like a circle, let's go 'round one more time.
