I’ve been up and down and around and ’round and back again

4 1 5

I’ve been so many places I can’t remember where or when

1 5

And my only boss was the clock on the wall and my only friend

4 5 1

Never really was a friend at all

6m 3m

Well I’ve traded love for pennies and sold my soul for less

4 1 5

Lost my deals in that long tunnel of time

1 5

And I’ve turned inside out and around about and back again

4 5 4 5 1

Found myself right back where I started again

Once I had myself a million now I’ve only got a dime

The difference don’t seem quite as bad today

With a nickel or million I was searchin’ all the time

4 1

For something that I’ve never lost or left behind

And now I’m in my second circle and I’m headin’ for the top

I’ve learned a lot of things along the way

I’ll be careful while I’m climbing ’cause it hurts a lot to drop

4 5 4 5 1

When you’re down nobody gives a damn anyway
