Hymn Of The Big Wheel Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]
[Em][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]The big
wheel keeps on [Em]turnin'
[D]On a simple line day by day[Em][A]
The [D]earth spins on its [Em]axis[D]
One man struggles while another relaxes
[Em][D][C][D][C][D][C][D][C][D][C][D][C]
[D]
There's a hole in my soul like a cavity
Seems like the world is out
together just by gravity
The wheel keeps turning,
the sky is rearranging
Look my son the weather is changing
I'd like to feel that you could be free
Look up at the blue skies
beneath [C]a new t[D]ree
Sometime again you'll turn green
and the sea [C]turns [D]red
My son I said the power of
axis [Am]over my [D]head[Am]
The [D]big wheel keeps on [Em]turning[G]
[Asus4]On a simple li[D]ne day by day[Em][Asus4]
The [D]earth spins on [Em]its axis[D]
One man struggles
while another re[Em]laxes
[Asus4]We sang abou[D]t the sun
and danced among the trees
And we [C]listened [D]to the whisper
of [C]the city [D]on the breeze
[G]Will you [D]cry anymore in a [C]lead- free [D]zone
Down within the shadows
where the factories drone
[Em]On t[D]he surface of the wheel
they build another town
And so the green come tumbling down
Yes, close your eyes and hold me tight
[A]And I'll [D]show you a sunset
sometime again
The big wheel keeps on [Em]turning
[D]On a simple line day by day[Em][Asus4]
The [D]earth spins on [Em]its axis[G]
[D]One man struggles while
another re[Em]laxes
[Asus4][A][D][C][D][C][D][C][D][C][D]
[G]As a [D]child's silent prayer,
my hope hides in disguise
While satellites and cameras
watch from the skies
An acid drop of rain recycled from the sea
It washed away my shadow,
burnt a hole in me
And all the king's men cannot
put it back again
But the ghetto sun where nature [Em]lies
[D]Will mend my soul
Sometime again
The big wheel keeps on [Em]turning
[D]On a simple line day by day[Em][G]
[Asus4]The earth spi[D]ns on its axis[Em][Asus4]
[D]One man struggles while another re[Em]laxes
My [Asus4]son I said the big w[D]heel
keeps on [Em]turni[Am]ng
[D]On a simple line day by day[Em][G]
[Asus4]The earth spi[D]ns on its axis[Em][G][Asus4]
[D]One man struggles while
another re[Em]laxes[Asus4][D]
Big wheel
On a simple line
The earth spins

[Outro 1]
