Aerosmith - Round & Round guitar tab
"ROUND AND ROUND" (Steven Tyler/Brad Whitford)
performed by Aerosmith on "Toys in the Attic"(1975)
humbly transcribed by Bryson Meunier
intro-
Repeat each chord about eight times(I think. Listen to the cd for
verification). Palm mute repeated chords. Turn up the gain and the bass on
your amp for a fatter guitar sound.

Lyrics:
If you believe in me like I believe in you
you wouldn't be tellin' me things that weren't exactly true
Now everything changes ain't nothin the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
A5 B5 C5
Cause the life I've been livin and the love I've been givin' will be sure to
D5
send you spinnin' with your feet never touchin' the ground, goin' round
and round.
When it was one for all and it was all for one
and everything that we did never bothered no one
Now everything changes ain't nothin the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
Cause the life...etc.
Can you remember the days when you was sweet sixteen
and always followed the ways of someone else's dream
Now everything changes...etc.
I'm goin' round and round and round and round...
