Song - Circles
Band - Thrice
Album - Beggars (2009)
Noticed there weren't any easy to follow/accurate tabs for this song so thought I'd try
it out. Nothing too hard, easy
enough to play on the acoustic.
Tuning - 1/2 Step Down
[Verse1]
G#m
We talk too much; We talk in circles
B
Till we’re all spinning round,
C#m E
Reaching for rings on this merry-go-round.
G#m
The scenery spins; We call it progress,
B
But I’ve seen this all before;
C#m E
When all’s said and done, we’ll wake up on the floor.

[Chorus]
E F# G#m E
We set sail with no fixed star in sight.
E F# G#m E
We drive by braille and candlelight.
[Verse 2]
G#m
We’re building towers with no foundations,
B
Just stacking stone on stone.
C#m E
Whatever it takes - mix our mortar with bones.
G#m
But true progress means matching the world to
B
The vision in our heads,
C#m E
But we always change the vision instead.
[Chorus]
E F# G#m E
We set sail with no fixed star in sight.
E F# G#m E
We drive by braille and candlelight.
[Outro]
E-G#m
