The Windmills Of Your Mind

Intro
Em B7 Em
Couplet
EmRound like a circle in a spiral,
Like a wheel within a B7wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever spinning Emreel
Like a snowball down a E7mountain
Or a carnival Am7balloon
Like a carousel that's D7turning,
Running rings around the Gmaj7moon
Like a clock whose hands are Cmaj7sweeping
Past the minutes of its Am6face
And the world is like an B7apple
Whirling silently in A#(dim)space
Like the circles that you B7find
In the windmills of your Emmind
Couplet
Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of its B7own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never Emshone
Like a door that keeps E7revolving
In a half-forgotten Am7dream
Or the ripples from a D7pebble
Someone tosses in a Gmaj7stream
Like a clock whose hands are Cmaj7sweeping
Past the minutes of its Am6face
And the world is like an B7apple
Whirling silently in A#(dim)space
Like the circles that you B7find
In the windmills of your Emmind
Couplet
Keys that jingle in your pocket,
Words that jangle in your Am7head
Why did summer go so D7quickly?
Was it something that you Gmaj7said?
Lovers walk along the G7shore
And leave their footprints in the Cmaj7sand
Is the sound of distant F#7drumming
Just the fingers of your Bmhand?
Pictures hanging in a E7hallway
And the fragment of a Amsong
Half-remembered names and D7faces,
But to whom do they Gmaj7belong?
When you knew that it was Cmaj7over,
You were suddenly Am6aware
That the autumn leaves were B7turning
To the colour of her Emhair.
Couplet
A circle in a spiral,
A wheel within a B7wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever spinning A#(dim)reel
As the images Emunwind,
Like the circles that you B7find
In the windmills of your Emmind
