Capo First Fret
           C
On our anniversary
                F                  C
There'll be someone else where you used to be
                C        E       Am
The world don't care and yet it clings to me
        F                G       G/C   G
And the moon is gold and silvery
    C               F/C  C
Who knows where the sidewalk ends
                    F            C
Well, the road will turn and the road will bend
            C   E            Am
They always say he marks the sparrow's fall
        F         G           G/C    G
How can anyone believe it all?
          C                F                   C
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
                G       G7                F        C
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
       C                F         C
On his hand he wore the ring of another
                    G       G7               F        C
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
             C         F/C    C
We broke the bank and we tore up the place
           F             C
And we disappeared oh without a trace
        C      E       Am
Now the sun it falls into the sea
     F                  G          C/G  G
And I know I'm the only one for me
         C             F                  C
I was so green and the dress you wore was yellow
                    G      G7                F        C
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
           C            F              C
The sun is down and the moon is in the meadow
                    G      G7                F        C
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
C     F           C
Put a hat on your head
         D7                          G       G7
Will you paint the whole damned town red with me?
          C                 F                  C
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
                G       G7               F       C
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
       C                F         C
On his hand he wore the ring of another
                G      G7                F       C
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
                G      G7                F       C
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
                G      G7                F       C
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
