[Intro]
E A E A E A E B
[Verse]
E A
So it was that everything
E A
That went to make up everything
E A
Was wrapped up tight inside a grain
E B
Of great insistence
E A
And then someone gave the great command
E A
All things paired off for the dance
E A
The great to small, the small to grand
E B
Down to this instant
[Interlude]
E A E A E A E B
[Verse 2]
E A
The hawk around the field mouse
E A
The love around a lover’s mouth
E A
I find my mind is settling down
E B
In circuits round you
E A
And the angels round their crowded pins
E A
The amber-waved electrons spin
E A
In planetary transits
E B
Round the ones they’re bound to
[Interlude]
E A E A E A E B
[Chorus]
E A
Who do you circle 'round?
E A
Who is it circles 'round you?
E A E B
Is it circles 'round you?
E A
Who do you circle 'round?
E A
Who is it circles 'round you?
E A E B
Is it circles 'round you?
[Interlude]
E A E A E A E B
[Verse 2]
E A
The ghost around the one it haunts
E A
The want around the thing it wants
E A E B
The way the mind just wanders off and then returns to
E A
And the thought around the second thought
E A
Love or gravity or law
E A
Whatever name it’s got, it’s got me
E B
Circling round you
E A
And the guess around the second guess
E A
The hornet 'round the hornet’s nest
E A
The wheel time, the wheel fate
E A
The light that bends itself through space
E A
The light that with it carries time
E A
Which also bends in the same line
E A
Relative to point of view
E A
So when I catch a glimpse of you
E A
Every time you come around
E
The room lights up
A
And time slows too
[Outro]
