C I R C L E S
CEver since you left me
I've been Amtrying to hide the pain
Painting Bmon a smile with lipstick
Putting Emon a big charade
So diffiCcult to keep pretending
It's getting Amharder everyday
It's plain to Bmsee I'm cold and heartsick
Since you Emturned and walked away
I Cjust keep going round and Amround
And round in Bmcircles
Keep on tumbling Bdown
[chorus]
Oh Cboy my Amworld has Bmchanged
And I Emdon't think I can Dmake it without yCou
NoAmthing's the Bmsame
You got me Emrunning around in Dcircles over yCou
(C)
(running around in circles over you)
CSaturday I saw you
Holding Amhands with someone new
Somehow BmI kept my composure
Just like Emeverything was cool
But inCside I kept repeating
Don't you Amlet them see you cry
So I Bmcasually turned my head
As the Emtears rolled down my eyes
I Cjust keep going round and Amround
And round in Bmcircles
Keep on tumbling Bdown
[repeat chorus]

CEverything is Amyou
How can I pull Bmthrough
My heart is conEmsumed DI'm Cso DconCfused

Still caught up in you...love can be so cruel
Baby don't know Emhow to turn you loose
[chorus]
Oh Cboy my Amworld has Bmchanged
And I Emdon't think I can make it without Cyou
AmNo, nothing's the Bmsame
You got me Emrunning around
And running around
And running aCround
NoAmthing's the Bmsame
Baby baby cause you
Got me Emrunning around
In circles over Cyou

C I R C L E S

Ever since you left me

I've been trying to hide the pain

Painting on a smile with lipstick

Putting on a big charade

So difficult to keep pretending

It's getting harder everyday

It's plain to see I'm cold and heartsick

Since you turned and walked away

C Am

I just keep going round and round

And round in circles

Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]

Oh boy my world has changed

And I don't think I can make it without you

You got me running around in circles over you

(running around in circles over you)

Saturday I saw you

Holding hands with someone new

Somehow I kept my composure

Just like everything was cool

But inside I kept repeating

Don't you let them see you cry

So I casually turned my head

As the tears rolled down my eyes

C Am

I just keep going round and round

And round in circles

Keep on tumbling down

[repeat chorus]

C Am

Everything is you

How can I pull through

Em D C D C

My heart is consumed I'm so confused
