[Dm]
[E] Through all the bygone ages, philosophers and [B] sages [F#] have [B] meditated on the circle's [E] mysteries.
[G] From Euclid to Pythagoras, from Gauss [Am] to an Exagoras, [A] their thoughts [G] have filled the [E] library's bulging [G] histories.
And yet there [B] was [F#] elation throughout the whole [E] Greek nation when Archimedes [Gm] did his mighty [G#m] [F#m] [B] computation.
[E] He said, [D#] 31410 my, [D] here's a song we'll [Fm] sing about pi.
[C#m] Not a sigma or mu, [B] but a well-known Greek letter [E] too.
[A] You can have your alphas and your greats, 5 [F#m]-8s and [B] omegas for a friend.
[D#] But that's just what a [C#] circle does and [B] have a beginning or an end.
[E] [D#] 314159 [Em] is a ratio we [F#] don't define.
[Fm] 2 [B] pi times [F#m] radii gives [F] circumference you [E] can rely.
If you square [B] the radius [A] times the pi, you will get the [C#m] circle's space.
[E] Here's my [D] song about [Em] pi, fit for [E] mathematicians and brains.
