[Verse]
(D) D A
I’ve been up and down and 'round and 'round and back again
G D A
Been so many places I can’t remember where or when
D A
And my only boss was the clock on the wall and my only friend
G A D
Never really was a friend at all
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
I’ve traded love for pennies, sold my soul for less
G D A
Lost my ideals in that long tunnel of time
D A
And I’ve turned inside out and around about and back and then
G A G A D
Found myself right back where I started again.

Once I had myself a million now I’ve only got a dime
G A D
Difference don’t seem quite as bad today
D A
With a nickel or a million I was searchin’ all the time
G A G D
Something that I'd never lost or left behind

And now I’m in my second circle and I’m headin’ for the top
G A D
I’ve learned a lot of things along the way
D A
I’ll be careful while I’m climbin' cause it hurts a lot to drop
G A G A D
When you’re down nobody gives a damn anyway
