Cycles

[C] [Em] [F] [G]



[C]             [Em]

So I'm down and so I'm out

    [F]         [G]

But so are many others.

[C]            [Em]

So I feel like tryin' to hide

   [F]               [G]

My head 'neath these covers.

[F]              [C]

Life is like the seasons,

      [F]    [C]       [G]

After winter comes the spring.

[C]               [Em]  

So I'll keep this smile awhile

    [F]        [G]           [C]

And see what tomorrow brings.



[Em] [F] [G]



[C]               [Em]

I've been told and I believe

     [F]               [G]

That life is meant for livin'.

[C]             [Em]

So even when my chips are low

      [F]                   [G]     

There's still some left for givin'.

[F]           [C] 

I've been many places

      [F]    [C]    [G]

Maybe not as far as you.

[C]             [Em]

So I think I'll stay awhile

    [F]    [G]              [C]

And see if some dreams come true.



[Em] [F] [G]



[F]                   [C]

There isn't much that I have learned

[F]                    [C]

Through all my foolish years

[F]                    [C]

Except that life keeps running in cycles.

[F]                   [Am]         [G]

First there's laughter, then those tears.



[C]              [Em]

But I'll keep my head up high

   [F]               [G]

Although I'm kind of tired.

   [C]             [Em]

My gal just up and left last week

    [F]          [G] 

And Friday I got fired.

[C]                   [Em]

You know, it's almost funny

    [F]                         [G]

But things can't get worse than now.

   [C]                    [Em]

So I'll keep on tryin' to sing

    [F]          [G]

But please, just don't ask me how.
