This is a beautiful song by Joni Mitchell that sounds great on acoustic. This is a easy tab with great lyrics and a very pretty tune. Have fun! Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star Then the child moved ten times 'round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like, when you're older, must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams CHORUS: And the seasons, they go 'round and 'round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captured on a carousel of time We can't return, we can only look behind from where we came And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town And they tell him, take your time it won't be long now 'Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down PLAY CHORUS So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty Before the last revolving year is through PLAY CHORUS PLAY LAST LINE OF CHORUS AGAIN
