[Intro 1]
[Bm][Am][Bm][Am]
[Bm][Am][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Yesterday a [C]child came out to [G]wander
[G]Caught a dragon[C]fly inside [D]a jar
[G]Fearful when the [C]sky was full [Bm]of thunder
And [C]tearful at the [G]falling
[Bm]of a[Am] star[G][C][G]

[Chorus 1]
And the [G]seasons they go [Bm]round [Am]and [G]round
And the painted ponies go
[Bm]up a[Am]nd do[G]wn
[C]We're captive on the carousel of tim[G]e
[C]We can't return we can only look
Be[Bm]hind from where we [C]came
And go [G]round and round
and [Bm]round in the [Am]circle [G]gam[C]e[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Then the child moved [C]ten times
[G]'round the seasons
[G]Skated over [C]ten clear frozen [D]streams
[G]Words like when you're [C]older
must ap[Bm]pease him
And [C]promises of [G]someday
[Bm]make [Am]his d[G]re[C]ams[G]

[Chorus 2]
And the [G]seasons they go [Bm]round [Am]and [G]round
And the painted ponies go
[Bm]up a[Am]nd do[G]wn
[C]We're captive on the carousel of tim[G]e
[C]We can't return we can only look
Be[Bm]hind from where we [C]came
And go [G]round and round
and [Bm]round in the [Am]circle [G]gam[C]e[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]Sixteen [C]springs and sixteen summers
[G]gone now
[G]Cartwheels turn to [C]car wheels
[D]through the town
And they [G]tell him take your [C]time
it won't [Bm]be long now
'Til you [C]drag your feet to [G]slow
the [Bm]cir [Am]cles d[G]ow[C]n[G]

[Chorus 3]
And the [G]seasons they go [Bm]round [Am]and [G]round
And the painted ponies go
[Bm]up a[Am]nd do[G]wn
[C]We're captive on the carousel of tim[G]e
[C]We can't return we can only look
Be[Bm]hind from where we [C]came
And go [G]round and round
and [Bm]round in the [Am]circle [G]gam[C]e[G]

[Verse 4]
So the [G]years spin by and [C]now the boy
[G]is twenty
Though his [G]dreams have lost some [C]grandeur
[D]coming true
There'll be [G]new dreams maybe [C]better dreams
[Bm]and plenty
Be[C]fore the last re[G]volving
[Bm]year [Am]is th[G]ro[C]ugh[G]

[Chorus 4]
And the [G]seasons they go [Bm]round [Am]and [G]round
And the painted ponies go
[Bm]up a[Am]nd do[G]wn
[C]We're captive on the carousel of tim[G]e
[C]We can't return we can only look
Be[Bm]hind from where we [C]came
And go [G]round and round
and [Bm]round in the [Am]circle [G]gam[C]e[G]
And go [Bm]round and round
and [Am]round in the circle
[G]gam[C]e[G][C]
[G][G]
