Since someone recently posted the words to this, I thought I'd throw out a
tab of the way PK used to play this live way back in the early 80's.
Its fairly simple, but contains some fun bongo stuff (done long before
"bongo hits" and "tapping" were popular).  The hard part is the drum solo
(on guitar) at the end.

everything is strummed (of course you can add what you want).

above the tab symbols
/ - down beat  !!!IMPORTANT!!!
B - bongo hit behind and below the bridge (low bongo sound)
b - bongo hit just below the soundhole (higher bongo sound)
  (Bongo hits are a slap on the guitar w/ the right hand between strums 
   at the location indicated above).

in the tab symbols
h - hammer on


Notice that most of the strums are on the UP beat (with a down stroke).

Standard tuning.
Repeat first bar 2 times for intro.

Lyrics thanks to Gary Murphree on Keaggy-l list:

LOOKING BACK, I MUST SAY
THAT I'M GLAD I'VE COME THIS WAY
THERE'S NO DOUBT, I'VE GOT MORE
THAN I'VE EVER HAD BEFORE
 YOU TOOK MY HAND AND LET ME OUT OF DARKNESS
FULL CIRCLE, I HAVE COME
YOU MAY ASK ME WHERE I'VE COME FROM
AND WHEN I TELL YOU THAT IT'S NO LIE
I'VE COME FULL CIRCLE IN MY LIFE.

I COULD HEAR OUR RECORDS PLAY, AROUND THE WORLD AND IN THE STATES
AND THOSE DAYS WERE LIKE A DREAM
AT TIMES YOU'RE UP, THEN DOWN IT SEEMED.
OH, WILL THIS LAST,
WHAT WILL BE IN MY LIFE TOMORROW?
(repeat chorus)
WITH A TOUCH OF HIS HAND, I WAS MADE A NEWBORN MAN
WHAT I HAD GAINED, I LEFT BEHIND
IT'S DRIFTING FURTHER BACK IN TIME
YOU TOOK MY HAND AND LED ME OUT OF DARKNESS
(repeat chorus) =20
