[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

         [

[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-

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

an
[    
       Time ma

       
y change me
        
But you can't 

         
trace time


[Bridge]

             
Strange fascin

             
ation, fascina

            
ting me
             
Changes are ta
