[Verse 1]
G Am
From the day we arrive on the planet
D G
And blinking, step into the sun
Em Am
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
F D
More to do than can ever be done
G Am
Some say eat or be eaten
D G
Some say live and let live
Em Am
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
F D
You should never take more than you give
[Chorus]
G
In the circle of life
F
It's the wheel of fortune
C
It's the leap of faith
D
It's the band of hope
G/B E7
Till we find our place
Am Fm
On the path unwinding
C G F C
In the cir - cle, the circle of li - fe
[Verse 2]
G Am
Some of us fall by the wayside
D G
And some of us soar to the stars
Em Am
And some of us sail through our troubles
F D
And some have to live with the scars
G Am
There's far too much to take in here
D G
More to find than can ever be found
Em Am
But the Sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
F D
Keeps great and small on the endless round
[Chorus]
G
In the circle of life
F
It's the wheel of fortune
C
It's the leap of faith
D
It's the band of hope
G/B E7
Till we find our place
Am Fm
On the path unwinding
C G F C
In the cir - cle, the circle of li - fe
F
It's the wheel of fortune
C
It's the leap of faith
D
It's the band of hope
G E7
Till we find our place
Am Fm
On the path unwinding
G D C G
In the cir - cle, the circle of li - fe
