One More Time Around

Post by ken »

the Big Wheels - Mo + Ken

Verse: Dm F C Bb, Dm F Gm Bb Am
Chorus: Bb C Dm
Bridge: D Bm Cadd9 Am
Solo: Ab9 Bb9 Ab9 Bb9 Eb, one extra bar of Bb/D

Hold on tight, feel your heart race
We are stars floating in space
In the dark we find our light
Blind creatures in the night
Moments fly, so we must race
Life’s a wild chase,
When we’re alone time moves slow
We’re connected from long ago

One more time around
Can you feel it turn
One more time around

Hold on tight and don't let go
Time moves faster than you know
When we find a kindred spark
No longer shadows in the dark
All good things we must embrace
Once we find our place
Our kind and gentle friends
May not be there until the end

One more time around
Can you feel it turn
One more time around

Bridge
Solo

One more time around
Can you feel it turn
One more time around

ONE MORE TIME AROUND
Mystic Colossus

It shouldn’t have been like this
And this day’s not the brightest
But you don’t seem affected in the slightest
You say you lost your best friend
You say you’re at a dead end
Well, maybe you’re only free of me instead

We used to get along fine
I think we had a good time
But at some point we must have crossed a fine line
And now it’s still unspoken
And I’m not sure what’s broken
But this dance feels like it’s not much more than a token

And it’s one more time around
As we dance around the things we want to say
And if there’s more to be found
Then maybe you should stay

And now that we’re both in this
It seems that we’re not finished
And we both know that you’re not so sinless
And I know one more thing
We had a shot at something
And if we learned from it well that’s not nothing

So it’s one more time around
As we dance around the things we want to say
And if there’s more to be found
Then maybe you should stay

One More Time Around
Pigfarmer Jr

Brian told me all about
The same old troubles he had
A brand new year is coming and he's
Raising all sorts of red flags
I know he didn't want to burst my bubble
But he had to sing the truth
Another year is here to remind me
Of how I wasted my youth

And it's one more time around
Whether we like it or not
One more time around
Like a hand on a ticking clock
There's no use denying
It's better than dying
Buried six feet underground
So I'll raise my glass as the new year slips past
One more time around

Brian told me all about
Another turn for the worse
He says we're headed for the ditch
While I'm stuck here in reverse
Life is like a roller coaster
You hope that it'll slow down
Even if it stops you can't get off
If you're too high off the ground

And it's one more time around
Whether we like it or not
One more time around
Like a hand on a ticking clock
There's no use denying
It's better than dying
Buried six feet underground
So I'll raise my glass as the new year slips past
One more time around

Don't wanna grow old but time takes its toll
It's more than you wanna give
But it's not surprising we're all deciding
It's better than the alternative

Brian told me the stroke of midnight
Won't change a single thing
Guess I'm going through the motions
Like a puppet on a string

And it's one more time around
Whether we like it or not
One more time around
Like a hand on a ticking clock
There's no use denying
It's better than dying
Buried six feet underground
So I'll raise my glass as the new year slips past
One more time around
One more time around

Berkeley Social Scene

Intro/Verse: D Bm
Chorus: Em-A7- F#m-G- G-Em- F#m-D-
Bridge: D Em-A7- x4, F#m-Em- G x2, A7 A7

We circled the room with strings of lights
Reflecting how life has been bright
We laughed about plans we never fulfilled
Instead we just Netflixed and chilled

Raise a glass
One more time around
Let’s toast the days we spent together
One more time around

You bought a new car and we drove all around
Discovering new roads and new towns
The rent got paid, the plants didn’t die,
You learned to cook shepherds pie

Raise a glass
One more time around
Let’s toast the days we spent together
One more time around

Blowing noisemakers makes a familiar sound
Countdown complete, the confetti on the ground.

Raise a glass
One more time around
Let’s toast the days we spent together
One more time around
Pop the cork
One more time around
Let’s toast the nights we spent together
One more time around

“One More Time Around”
by Lunkhead

One more time around
One more time around
Driving on the highway
Singing with the windows down
Oooooh, one more time around

One more time around
One more time around
Over the mountains to the coast
With the one I love the most
Oooooh, one more time around

Baby we got a lot of years behind us
Won't be long till the devil comes and finds us
We gotta keep on placin' bets, livin' life with no regrets
Cause we might just have one more time around, one more time around

One more time around
One more time around
In the desert or the city
Home is always you and me
Oooooh, one more time around

Baby we got a lot of years behind us
Won't be long till the devil comes and finds us
We gotta keep on placin' bets, livin' life with no regrets
Cause we might just have one more time around, one more time around

(bridge)

Until we're in the ground
Until we're in the ground
Walking side by side
Hand in hand
We gotta sing out loud
Oooooh, one more time around

Baby we got a lot of years behind us
Won't be long till the devil comes and finds us
We gotta keep on placin' bets, livin' life with no regrets
Cause we might just have one more time around, one more time around
