  			Intro Dm  E/D  Gm/D  D 

D                    E 
Life goes around in circles 
          Gm                 D       
But every couple of turns I find myself alone 
D                          E 
And at these times, I see visions 
              G            D    F#m 
Of a ring up ahead in the road 
                         G 
But i'm riding at full speed 
      E7 
On a great white wooden horse 
            A7 
To catch a ring thats never there

       A7        Bm  A  G 
I'm riding on a carousel 
D  F#m  G 
Carousel 
       A7           Bm   A   G  
A ride i've come to know all too well 
    A7          Dm  E/D   Gm/D  D 
I'm on a carousel 

D                    E 
Time's a joker and brings back the same 
         Gm                             D 
Sets for the stage for our play-acting game 
D                          E 
And at these times, I see visions 
               G         D                       F#m      
An endless déjà vu with different sounding ends 
               G 
And the jokes on me 
     E7 
I'm reaching for that ring 
      A7 
But I keep pulling it away
