Windmills Of Your Mind

Cm

                    Cm
Like a circle in a spiral,
                     Gm
or a wheel within a wheel,
                   G
Never ending or beginning
                     Cm
on an ever-spinning reel,
                         C
Like a snowball down a mountain
          C/E    Fm
or a carnival balloon,
           Ab         Bb
Or a carousel that's turning,
                          Eb
running rings around the moon,
                    Gm          Ab
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
                         Dm
past the minutes on its face,
                          G
And the world is like an apple,
                      F#dim
whirling silently in space,
                            G
Like the circles that you find
                          Cm
in the windmills of your mind.

                          Cm
Like a tunnel that you follow
                   Gm
to a tunnel of its own,
                    G
Down a hollow to a cavern
                          Cm
where the sun has never shone,
                          C
Like a door that keeps revolving
                C/E   Fm
in a half-forgotten dream,
                Ab      Bb
Or the ripples from a pebble
                      Eb
someone tosses in a stream,
                     G        Ab
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping,
                         Dm
past the minutes on its face,
                          G
And the world is like an apple,
                      F#dim
whirling silently in space,
                           G
Like the circles that you find
                          Cm
in the windmills of your mind.

                          Cm
Keys that jingle in your pocket,
                           Fm
words that jangle in your head.
                        Bb
Why did summer go so quickly?
                           Eb
Was it something that you said?
                        Eb/Db
Lovers walk along the shoreline,
                               Ab
leave their footprints in the sand.
                           D
Was the sound of distant drumming
                          Gm
just the fingers on your hand?
                        C
Pictures hanging in a hallway
                        Fm
and the fragments of a song
                 Ab       Bb
Half-remembered names and faces,
                        Gm
but to whom do they belong?
                           Ab
When you knew that it was over
                      Dm
in the autumn of goodbyes
Cm/Eb G/D    Cm               G/B
For a moment you could not recall
                  G
the color of his eyes.

Like a circle in a spiral,
                      G
or a wheel within a wheel,
Never ending or beginning
                    F#dim
on an ever-spinning reel
                 Eb
As the images unwind,
                           G
Like the circles that you find
                          Cm
In the windmills of your mind.
