[Verse 1]
          D                                    A
I’ve been up and down and around and round and back again
G                               D             A
Been so many places I can’t remember where or when
       D                                          A
And my only boss was the clock on the wall and my only friend
G            A               D      
Never really was a friend at all


[Chorus]
     Bm                       F#m
I’ve traded love for pennies, sold my soul for less
        G              D              A
Lost my ideals in that long tunnel of time
                D                               A
And I’ve turned inside out and around about and back and then
G            A                  G   A    D   
found myself right back where I started again.

[Verse 2]
       D                             A
Once I had myself a million now I’ve only got a dime
G                     A              D      
Difference don’t seem quite as bad today
       D                         A
With a nickel or a million I was searchin’ all the time
G                 A              G      D      
Something that I'd never lost or left behind


[Chorus]
     Bm                       F#m
I’ve traded love for pennies, sold my soul for less
        G              D              A
Lost my ideals in that long tunnel of time
                D                               A

[Verse 3]
            D                            A
And now I’m in my second circle and I’m headin’ for the top
     G                A                D
I’ve learned a lot of things along the way
        D                                   A    
I’ll be careful while I’m climbin' cause it hurts a lot to drop
G                A             G     A  D
When you’re down nobody gives a damn anyway
