[Intro]

[4/4]

      
              

         
              

                         
 Oh yeah


[Verse]

             
  Still don't 

            
know what I wa


s waiting for
       
And my time wa

s running wild
           
  A million de

ad-end streets

 and
             
  Every time I

            
 thought I'd g


ot it made
              
It seemed the 

             
taste was not 

      
so sweet
         
So I turned my

        
self to face m

   
e
           
But I've never

              
 caught a glim

  
pse
           
Of how the oth

         
ers must see t

        
he faker
              
I'm much too f

           
ast to take th

       
at test


[Chorus]

          
  Ch-ch-ch-ch-

Changes
        
Turn and face 

the strange
        
  Ch-ch-Change

s
          
  Don't want t

             [
o be a richer 

     [
     man
          
  Ch-ch-ch-ch-

Changes
        
Turn and face 

the strange
        
  Ch-ch-Change

s
          
  It's gonna h

           [
ave to be a   

           
   different m

     
an
[    
       Time ma

       
y change me
      
But I can't tr

         [
ace time


[Verse]

             
I watch the ri

      
pples change t

heir size
             
But never leav

             
e the stream o

         
f warm imperma

nence
             
And so the day

        
s float throug

h my eyes
              
But still the 

             
days seem the 


same
           
And these chil

         
dren that you 

   
spit on
           
As they try to

              
 change their 

       
worlds
         
Are immune to 

        
your consultat

   
ions
           
They're quite 

              
aware of what 

              
they're going 

        
through


[Chorus]

(      
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Ch

anges
        
Turn and face 

the strange
        
Ch-ch-Changes
          
Don't tell the

             [
m to grow up a

     [
nd out of it
          
  Ch-ch-ch-ch-

Changes
        
Turn and face 

the strange
        
  Ch-ch-Change

s
Where's your shame
           
You've left us

  [            
ks in it
[    
       Time ma

       
y change me
        
But you can't

[Bridge]

             
Strange fascin

             
ation, fascina
