C                    Fmaj7           C
People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
C                                  Fmaj7           C
They give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
F               Dm               G
When I say that I'm OK well they look at me kind of strange
Fmaj7              Dm               G
"Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game?"


[Verse 2]

C                   Fmaj7       C
People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
C                                     Fmaj7       C
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
 F                   Dm                      G
I tell them that I'm doing fine watching the shadows on the wall
F                   Dm                     G 
"Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?"


[Chorus]

F       G                        C                   Am
I'm just sitting here making the wheels go round and round
F Dm                       F
I love to watch them roll
G                       Am          Am/G    Am/F#
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
F       Fm7               C C/B C/A C/G Fmaj7
 I just had to let it go


[Verse 3]

C                        Fmaj7       C
People asking questions, lost in confusion
        C                           Fmaj7      C 
Well I tell them there's no problem,    only solutions
           F                         Dm            G
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
F                      Dm              G
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time


[Chorus]

F        G                         C                   Am
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
F        F/E                Dm   Dm7
I really love to watch them roll
G         G7            Am            Am/G   Am/F#
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
F        Fm7              C C/B C/A C/G
  I just had to let it go


[Outro]

F        Fm7              C C/B C/A C/G
  I just had to let it go
F      Fm6              Cmaj7
I just had to let it go
