This is a beautiful song by Joni Mitchell that sounds great on acoustic. This is a easy tab with great lyrics and a very pretty tune. Have fun! A D A Yesterday a child came out to wonder A D E Caught a dragonfly inside a jar A D F#m Fearful when the sky was full of thunder D A E A And tearful at the falling of a star A D A Then the child moved ten times 'round the seasons A D E Skated over ten clear frozen streams A D F#m Words like, when you're older, must appease him D A E A And promises of someday make his dreams CHORUS: A E A And the seasons, they go 'round and 'round A E A And the painted ponies go up and down D A We're captured on a carousel of time D F#m D We can't return, we can only look behind from where we came D F#m D E A And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game A D A Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now A D E Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town A D F#m And they tell him, take your time it won't be long now D A E A 'Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down PLAY CHORUS A D A So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty A D E Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true A D F#m There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty D A E A Before the last revolving year is through PLAY CHORUS PLAY LAST LINE OF CHORUS AGAIN
