C
[Verse 1]
C
The days keep on turning
Am F
The living, the learning, the long goodbyes
C
That far destination
Am F
A horse that keeps chasing a lonely prize
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am
I’m spinning in circles, get lost in the blur of the
C F G
Colors and crowds, the ups and the downs, oh
Am
I’ve been trying to let go
C F
Let the ride lift me up off the ground
[Chorus]
C Am
And we go round and round
F G
Riding a carousel
C Am
Lost in the light and sound
F G
It’s only temporary, no way to tell
C Em
If we’re running out of time, if we are that’s fine
F G
Just don’t make me ride by myself
C Am G
So til it all slows down
C Am
Ride with me round and round
C
On this carousel
[Verse 2]
C Am
Holding on tight through the shadows and light
F
We’re just passing by
C Am
Over and over, just when we get close
F
It falls out of sight
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am
I’m spinning to music, get dizzy and lose
C
What I thought I had found
F G
I’m up and I’m down oh
Am
I’ve been trying to let go
C F
Let the ride lift me up off the ground
[Chorus]
C Am
And we go round and round
F G
Riding a carousel
C Am
Lost in the light and sound
F G
It’s only temporary, no way to tell
C Em
If we’re running out of time, if we are that’s fine
F G
Just don’t make me ride by myself
C Am G
Ride by myself
C Am G
So til it all slows down
C Am
Ride with me round and round
C
Round this carousel
Am C
Oh, on this carousel
[Bridge]
C Am
Round and round and round and round and
F G
Round and round and round and round and
Am F
Round we go, round and round we go, oh
C Am
Round and round and round and round and
F G
Round and round and round and round and
Am F G
Round we go, oooh, oooh
[Chorus]
Am
Round and round
F
Riding a carousel
C Am
Lost in the light and sound
F G
It’s only temporary, no way to tell
C Em
If we’re running out of time, if we are that’s fine
F G
Just don’t make me ride by myself
C Am G
Ride by myself
C Am G
So til it all slows down
C Am
Ride with me round and round
C
Round this carousel
Am C
Oh, on this carousel
