The Windmills Of Your Mind Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Round like a circle in a spiral,
like a wheel within [E]a wheel,
never -ending or beginning on
an ever -spinning [Am]reel.
Like a [A]snowball down a mountain
or a carnival balloon,
[Dm]like a carou[G]sel that's turning,
running rings around the moon.
[C]Like a clo[F]ck whose hands are sweeping
past the minutes [Dm]of its face
[Bdim]And the worl[E]d is like an apple[Bdim]
grow[E]ing silently in space
[Ebdim]Like the circles that you find
[E]in the windmills of your min[Am]d
[F]Like a tunnel that [Am]you follow
to a tunnel of its own
[E]Down a hollow to a cavern
where the sun has never shone
[Am]Like a door [A]that keeps revolving
in a half -forgotten dream
[Dm]All the ripp[G]les from a pebble,
someone tosses in a [C]stream
Like a [F]clock whose hands are sweeping
past the [Dm]minutes of its face
[Bdim]And the world is[E] like an apple[Bdim]
[E]whirling silently in space
[Ebdim]Like the circles that you find[E]
in the windmills of your [Am]mind[Bbm]
Keys that [F#]jingle in [Bbm]your pocket,
words that jangle in your head
[Ebm]Why did summer go[G#] so quickly,
was it something that you said?
[C#]Lovers walk along the shore
and leave their footprints in the [F#]sand.
Is the [C]sound of distant drumming
just the fingers of your [Fm]hand?
Pictures [Bb]hanging in a hallway
and the fragment of [Ebm]a song.
Half -re[G#]membered names and faces,
but to whom do they belong?
[C#]When you knew [F#]that it was over,
you were sud[Eb]denly aware
[Cdim]That the[C] autumn [Bbm]leaves were [F]turning
to the color of her [Bbm]hair.[Bb]
[Bbm]Like a circle in a spiral,
like a wheel within a [F]wheel,
never -ending or beginning on
an ever -spinning [E]reel.
[Bbdim]As the images unwind,
[Bbm]like the circles that you find[F]
in the windmills of your [Bbm]mind.
We are the [C#]people [Bbm]of the lan[F#]d.
[Ebm]We are the people of [Bbm]the
We are the people of the land.
