INTRO?: Eb

Eb
I've been thinking it over

So many times they say
    Gm7
You got it made

They never understand
    C7b9
The answer lies within your soul

'Cos no one know which side
              Fm7
The coin will fall


            Gm7
Big wheels turning
           Fm7
Baby I know
            Gm7
Big wheels turning
           Fm7
Baby I know
            Gm7     Ab6
Big wheels turning, turning


C#9  Eb


Eb
Save it for a rainy day

For when the cold wind blows
        Gm7
Just to see how they run

I thought they'd know
C7b9
I tried my best, all I could do
                                  Fm7
But somehow it was not enough for you


   PRE-CHORUS & CHORUS :

               Gm7
   Big wheels turning
              Fm7
   Baby I know
               Gm7
   Big wheels turning
              Fm7
   Baby I know
               Gm7     Ab6
   Big wheels turning, turning, turning
   Bb       Bb7
   Turning, turning


   Eb  Cm  Bb  Eb


   Eb                 Ab6      Eb
   I remember the dead of night 
     Ab6      Abm6        Eb            F
   A lonely light that shines upon the window
   Bb
   I see it all so clear
       Abm6             Bb         Eb  [ch]Bb/Eb[/ch]
   The tenderness, the silent tears, ooh

   Eb               Ab6       Eb
   Out here in the pouring rain
           Ab6       [ch]Abm6/B[/ch]      Eb
   Through cold dark waiting days
             F
   I see you standing there
   Bb
   I see the big wheels turning
   Abm6          Bb
   Never ending, on and on they go

   Eb  [ch]Bb/Eb[/ch]  [ch]Bbm/C#[/ch]  [ch]Ab/C[/ch]

   C#  Eb

Eb
I think I'm going home

I think I'm gonna have to
Gm7
Start again, it's rather sad
             C7b9
Because I've looked around, can't seem to find
                                     Fm7
Whatever's always rolling through my mind


   REPEAT PRE-CHORUS & CHORUS


OUTRO?: C#  Eb
