[Verse 1]
From the Gday we arrive on the plAmanet
And blDinking, step into the sGun
There's mEmore to be seen than can eAmver be seen
More to dFo than can ever be dDone
GSome say eat or be eAmaten
Some say Dlive and let lGive
But Emall are agreed as they Amjoin the stampede
You should Fnever take more than you gDive
[Chorus]
In the circle of lGife
It's the wheel of fFortune
It's the leap of fCaith
It's the band of hDope
Till we find our G/BplaceE7  
On the path unwAmindingEb  
In the cGircle, Dthe circle of lCifeG  
[Verse 2]
SGome of us fall by the waysAmide
And sDome of us soar to the stGars
And sEmome of us sail through our trAmoubles
And soFme have to live with the scDars
There's fGar too much to take in hAmere
More to fDind than can ever be foGund
But the SEmun rolling high through the sAmapphire sky
Keeps great and smFall on the endless roDund
[Chorus]
In the circle of lGife
It's the wheel of fFortune
It's the leap of fCaith
It's the band of hDope
Till we find our G/BplaceE7  
On the path unwAmindingFm  
In the cGircle, Dthe circle of lCi - fGe
It's the wheel of fFortune
It's the leap of fCaith
It's the band of hDope
Till we find our GplaceE7  
On the path unwAmindingEb  
In the cGircle, Dthe circle of lCifeG
