Yesterday a [G] child came out [D] to wander, _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] caught a _ [G] dragonfly inside [A] a jar.
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _
Fearful when the [G] sky was full of [F#m] thunder, _ _ _ _ and [G] _
tearful [D] at the [A] falling of [D] a _ star.
_ _ _ The _ child [G] moved ten times [D] round the seasons, _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] skated _ [G] over ten fear [A]-throne streams.
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
When [G] her own must [F#m] _ -be's did, _ _ _ [G] the promises of [A] someday make [D] his dreams.
_ _ _ _ And the seasons may come, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] we can't turn, we can only _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [F#] hold in the circle [D] game. _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [D] _ Sixteen springs [G] and sixteen summers [D] gone now, [A] _ _ _ _ [D] heart wheels [G] lost and heart wheels through [A] the bow. _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
Take [G] your time, it won't [F#] be long [A]
now, [F#m] _ _ _ [G] till you drag your feet [D] to slow _ circles go. _ _
_ _ So the boy who dreamed [G] tomorrow now [D] is _ twenty, [A] _ _ _ [D] though his dreams have lost [G] some _ grandeur [A] coming true.
_ [C] _ _ _ [D] There'll be new dreams, maybe [G] better dreams [F#m] and plenty, _ _ _ _ [G] before the [A] last revolving year is [D] through.
_ _ _ _ And the seasons, they go round and round, and the pain always goes on and [G] on. _
We're captive on the _ parasol of [D]
time, _ _ _ _ [G] we can't return, we can only look [F#m] behind from where [G] we came.
And go [F#] _
round and round in the [D] circle game. _
