[Verse I]
D G D
I know, that everything changes. Yeah it's strange, how
G D G
time marches on. Well maybe, there will be sometime in the future.
F#m Em
Ohh tell me I'm not wrong, tell me I'm not wrong.
[Verse II]
D G D G
Oh, if I could stop time it'd be a frozen moment just around Christmas.
D G F#m
When all of mankind reveals its truest potential. And there is
Em
sympathy for the suffering. And there is sympathy for those who are
suffering.
[Verse III]
D G D
And the world embraces peace and love, and mercy, instead of power
G D G
and fear. And as sure as I'm standing here, I swear it really does appear
F#m Em
that a change comes over us. Yeah, some kind of change comes over us.
[Verse IV]
D G D
And it's glimpsed, it's glimpsed for one shining moment. And this change,
G D
well it feels like a change that's real. But then it passes along with the
G F#m Em
season. And then we, we just go back to the way we were, yeah we go back
to the way we were.
[Pre-Chorus]
D G D
Say it isn't so, say it isn't so, tell me I'm not just a dreamer, I'm not
G D
just a dreamer. Tell me 'cause I'm talking to a friend, and he knows how it ends,
G F#m Em
he says it's easier. He says that's just the way we are, that it's human nature
and that's just the way we are.
[Chorus]
D G D
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so), say it isn't so (say it isn't so),
G D
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so), say it isn't so (say it isn't so),
G F#m
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so), say it isn't so (say it isn't so),
Em
Say it isn't so........
