Circle of Life

Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
Performed by Elton John, From "The Lion King"

 5   -5   6  -5  -5 6  6  -6   6  -5     
From the day we arrive on the planet
 -4  -5  -5    -5  6 6  -6   5
And blinking, step into the sun
  6      7   7   7  7    -6  -7  7 -8 -8  -8
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
 -8  -8 -8  -8   8  -9 8  7  -8
More to do than can ever be done

 5    -5  6  6  -6  6 -5  
Some say eat or be eaten
 5   -5    6   6  -6   5 
Some say live and let live
 6   7   7  7   7   6   6    7  -8   -8  8     
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
-8    -8   -8 -8   8   -9    8   7   -8      
You should never take more than you give
 
(Chorus)
6   6   9  8  -8   7 
In the Circle of Life
 8    8   -9    9  -9  -8  
It's the wheel of fortune
-9   -9    9   8    7 
It's the leap of faith
-9   -9   -9   8  -8  
It's the band of hope
 6    6   9   8    8   -8 7 7
Till we find our place ~~~~~~
8   8   -9   9  9  -9
On the path unwinding
7   7   9   9    6  -9    -8   7   7
In the Cir-cle, the Cir - cle of Life
 

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars
 
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps the great and small on the endless round
 
(Chorus repeats)
 
On the path unwinding
In the Circle, the Circle of Life.
