"Around and around" Mark Kozelek cover from John Denver transcribed by Jérémie Grisolia (contact: jgrisolia@free.fr) Here's my transcription of "Around and around" the Mark Kozelek cover of the song written by John Denver. C F C Time as I've known it, it doesn't take much time to pass by me. C F C Minutes into days, turn into months, turn into years, they hurry by me. F C G Still I love to see the sun go down, and the world go around. C F C Dreams full of promises, hopes for the future, I've had many C F C Dreams I can't remember now, hopes that I've forgotten, faded memories. F C G Still I love to see the sun go down, and the world go around. F Dm C F And I love to see the morning as it steals across the sky. F Dm C F And I love to remember, and I love to wonder why. F Dm C F G And I hope that I'm around, so I can be there when I die, when I'm gone. C F C I hope that you will think of me in moments when you're happy, and you're smiling. C F C And that the thought will comfort you on cold and cloudy days, if you are crying. F C G C And that you'll love to see the sun go down, and the world go around, and around and around. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Around and Around On : Rock 'n' Roll Singer By : Mark Kozelek (originally written by John Denver) Tuning : CGCFGC Intro : p h h p h h p h h p h h -------0--0---0- -------0--0---00 -------0--0---00 -------0--0---00 --0----0--0---0- --0----0--0---00 --0----0--0---00 --0----0--0---00 --2--0----0---0- --2--0----0---00 --2--0----0---00 --2--0----0---00 --0---4---0---0- --0---4---0---00 --0---4---0---00 --0---4---0---00 --------02--02-- --------02--02-- --------02--02-- --------02--02-- 0--------------- 0--------------- 0--------------- 0--------------- Verse : I'm writing the strumming pattern only for the first bar, so you have a general idea. 5/4 h p h --0--0-0--0--0-0 0------------------- -------0--0---00 --0--000--0--000 0------------------- --0----0--0---00 --2--222--2--222 0------------------- --2--0----0---22 --0---0---0---0- 4------------------- --0---4---0---00 0-------0------- 2-----------------0- --------02------ 0-------0------- 2---------------05-- 0-----------0--- Chorus #1 : 0--------------- 0--------------- --0------------- 0--------------- 0--------------- --0--0-0-00--00- 4--------------- 2--------------- --6--6-6-77-666- 0--------------- 0--------------- --0--0-0--0-000- 5--------------- 0--------------- 7-----7--------- 5--------------- 0--------------- 7-----7--------- Then back to verse.
