Intro: C# - G - Cm - F

Couplet:
C#                             Cm  C#
From the day we arrive on the planet
F                           C#
And blinking, step into the sun
Gm                                 Cm
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
       G#                   F
More to do than can ever be done

Couplet
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give


Refrein
                 A#    D#  A#
In the circle of life
                 Cm            A#    
It's the wheel of fortune
                  D#
It's the leap of faith
                 F
It's the band of hope
                   A#        G
Till we find our place 
                  Cm   F#
On the path unwinding
        A#    F               D#       A#
In the circle, the circle of life


Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
