F - C - Dm - C                               Bb

                        Everything must change.       +  D - G

 

                D

1. I was never one to back out of an

    F#m                                    G

    argument and say I was wrong,

                Em

    even when I’d seen the other side,

          A                                              D    - G - A

    I’d hide my foolishness and carry on.

            D

    But still I’d be embarrassed ‚’cause they’d

      D7                                                      G

    see what happened and they’d play along,

             Em

    until I backed myself into a corner

    A                                                    D     - G

    I would only realize when they’d gone.

 

                    F          C        Dm      - C                                Bb

And like a dream, a life, a reason,        everything must change

                                                                         - C

(everything, everything, everything must cha.......nge),

                   F              C             Dm        - C                              Bb

and like a world, this earth and seasons,      everything must change

                                                                      C - D

(everything, everything, everything must cha.......nge).

 

                D

2. In the same way when we disagree,

   F#m                                          G

    I wouldn’t be the one to back down,

                 Em

    still I’d know that you had faith in me.

A                                                     D               - G - A

    Tell me something, am I letting you down ?

                     D

    ‘Cause when I woke up and I saw the

     D7                                                G

    note you pressed into the mirror frame,

                     Em

    but it was easy to be angry at you,

             A                                                  D       - G

    but deep inside I know we share the blame.

 

                    F          C        Dm      - C                                Bb

And like a dream, a life, a reason,        everything must change

                                                                  - C

(everything, everything, everything must          change),

                   F              C             Dm        - C                              Bb

and like a world, this earth and seasons,      everything must change

                                                                      C - D

(everything, everything, everything must cha.......nge).

 

+  G - A

 

                     D

3. I’m going back to the top to start myself off,

          F#m                                               G

    but first of all some things I need to know.

                       Em

    When I’m scared of being wrong again,

                    A                                                D           G                   - A

   won’t you be the one I turn to, to let me know, oh, let me know.

D

    Please, let me be right for once,

D7                                                      G

    ’cause right now all I feel I do is wrong,

                 Em

    and it’s never too late to learn about love,

                   A                                 - A7              D   - G

    and this victim needs you hand,        to hold on.
