opening riff :

B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A
|---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0--0---|
|---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0--2---|
|---8--7--6--5--4---3--2--1--2---|
|---9--8--7--6--5---4--3--2--2---|
|---9--8--7--6--5---4--3--2--0---|
|---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0------|


For the verses, just keep jamming on the A chord.
It sounds best if you strum with the right hand,
and mute with the left, depending on how you play
your A chord. It is easy to get into the right
rhythm if you play along with the record and
improvise a little. I got these lyrics off of the
live version, because Mike is easier to understand
on that version. This is my first attempt at
transcribing, so if anyone has corrections,
suggestions, or feedback, mail me at :

Enjoy!

A
Circle sky,
telling lies.
Here I stand
happy man,
G F E A
and it looks like we've made it once again.
G F E A
Yes, it looks like we've made it once again.

Colors, sound
all around.
Wing-tip smile,
sees for miles.
G F E A
and it looks like we've made it once again.
G F E A
Yes, it looks like we've made it once again.
B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A
B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A
Bm
It's a very extraordinary scene,
to those who don't understand,
Dm
but what you have seen you must believe,
E
if you can,
if you can.
A
Hamilton
smiling down.
Telling more,
than before,
G F E A
and it looks like we've made it once again.
G F E A
Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end!

you have a great site. keep it up. i am a guitar player with a platinum
selling band (out of nashville) and i wanted to make a correction on the tab
for circle sky (i play it out live sometimes) in the play along section.
the chord at the top of each chorus ("and it looks like") is a D chord and
not a G chord. also, at the end of the bridge ("if you can") the chord is a
E7 and not just a an E. hope this helps and take care. by the way, mike
nesmith is the reason i started playing guitar at the age of 6 yrs...i would
hope to meet him someday. God bless... mark townsend
