The Circle of Life - Jim Nelson
D G
When I was young, too young to understand
D A
My daddy left, like so many in his time
Bm G C
My Mama cried, the day the house burned down to the ground
G A
We were all afraid, but she said we’d be fine
D G
The circle of life, is broken at times
D A
Beginning doesn’t end well when love fails
D G A
Between hope and pain, you end up holding on to what you know
G A
Peace will come back around, don’t you know, it’ll be alright
G A
This is the story, I’ve come to know
D
