Tried to do the intro justice, but only so much I can do with chords.
Strongly recommend you watch this to learn both the chord timing and fingerpicking:

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I’ve been up a
nd down and ar
ound and round
and back agai
n
Been so many p
laces I can’t
remember where
or when
And my only bo
ss was the clo
ck on the wall
and my only f
riend
Never really w
as a friend at
all
[Chorus]
I’ve traded lo
ve for pennies
, sold my soul
for less
Lost my ideals
in that long
tunnel of time
And I’ve turne
d inside out a
nd around abou
t and back and
then
Found myself r
ight back wher
e I started ag
ain.
[Verse 2]
Once I had mys
elf a million
now I’ve only
got a dime
Difference don
’t seem quite
as bad today
With a nickel
or a million I
was searchin’
all the time
Something that
I'd never los
t or left behi
nd
[Chorus]
I’ve traded lo
ve for pennies
, sold my soul
for less
Lost my ideals
in that long
tunnel of time
And I’ve turne
d inside out a
nd around abou
t and back and
then
Found myself r
ight back wher
e I started ag
ain.
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
And now I’m in
my second cir
cle and I’m he
adin’ for the
top
I’ve learned a
lot of things
along the way
I’ll be carefu
l while I’m cl
imbin' cause i
t hurts a lot
to drop
When you’re do
wn nobody give
s a damn anywa
y
[Chorus]
I’ve traded lo
ve for pennies
, sold my soul
for less
Lost my ideals
in that long
tunnel of time
And I’ve turne
d inside out a
nd around abou
t and back and
then
Found myself r
ight back wher
e I started ag
ain.
