Watching the Wheels
John Lennon
| C | F | C | |
| People say I'm crazy, | doing what I'm | doing |
| F | C | |
| Well, they give me all kinds of warnings | to save me from | ruin |
| F | Dm | G | |
| When I say that | I'm okay, well, they | look at me kind of strange |
| F | Dm | G | |
| Surely you're not | happy now you no | longer play the game |
| People say I'm lazy, dreaming my life away |
| Well, they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me |
| When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall |
| Don't you miss the big time, boy, you're no longer on the ball |
| F | G | C | Am | |
| I'm just | sitting here watching the | wheels go 'round and | 'round |
| F | Am/E | Dm | F/C | |
| I really | love to watch them | roll |
| G | G/F | Am | Am/G | |
| No longer | riding on the | merry-go-ro | und |
| D7 | F | Fm7 | |
| I just | had to let it go |
| People asking questions, lost in confusion |
| Well, I tell them there's no problem, only solutions |
| Well, they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind |
| I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time |
| I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go 'round and 'round |
| I really love to watch them roll |
| No longer riding on the merry-go-round |
| C | D7 | |
| I just had to let it go |
| F | Fm7 | C | D7 | |
| I just | had to let it go |
| F | Fm7 | C | |
| I just | had to let it go |
