The Circle is Small
Capo on 3rd fret......

   Fmaj7               Dm7
It's all right for some but not all right for me
           Em
   When the one that I'm loving slips around 
    Fmaj7                Dm7
You think it's fine to do things I cannot see 
                      Em
            And you're doing it to me  
    F                        Gsus4          G       
    Baby can't you see that I know how it is 

           
            C           Em7  
            I can see it in your eyes
   F              G               C     Em7 F G
And feel it in the way you kiss my lips
            C            Em7 
            I can hear it in your voice
      F          G            C      Em7 F G
  Whenever we are talking like this
            C             Em 
            I can see what you believe in
  F               G               C    Em7 F G   
  When his name is mentioned and I die
            C              Em
            I can watch the way you walk
   F                 G                  C     Em7 F G 
The way you talk, the way you close your eyes
               
              Fm7                    Dm7  
           It's all right for some but not all right to be
                    Em
           Where the one that I'm loving can't be found
               Fm7                  Dm7 
            The city where we live might be quite large
                               Em
                     But the circle is small
             F                       Gsus4                G
             Why not tell us all and than all of will know



            C           Em7  
            I can see it in your eyes
   F              G               C     Em7 F G
And feel it in the way you kiss my lips
            C            Em7 
            I can hear it in your voice
      F          G            C      Em7 F G
  Whenever we are talking like this
            C             Em 
            I can see what you believe in
  F               G               C    Em7 F G   
  When his name is mentioned and I die
            C              Em
            I can watch the way you walk
   F                 G                  C     Em7 F G 
The way you talk, the way you close your eyes

    Fm7                    Dm7 
It's all right to leave but not all right to lie
        Em
When you come home and you can't say where you've been
   Fm7                       Dm7 
You can think it's fine to do the things I cannot see
          Em
And you're doing it to me
F                        Gsus4          G 
baby can't you see that I know how it is


            C           Em7  
            I can see it in your eyes
   F              G               C     Em7 F G
And feel it in the way you kiss my lips
            C            Em7 
            I can hear it in your voice
      F          G            C      Em7 F G
  Whenever we are talking like this
            C             Em 
            I can see what you believe in
  F               G               C    Em7 F G   
  When his name is mentioned and I die
            C              Em
            I can watch the way you walk
   F                 G                  C     Em7 F G 
The way you talk, the way you close your eyes
