Tom: Gm

Gm7 Gm7 Cm7 D7

[Verse 1]
Gm7  
Uh, check, uh, I kind of miss my student loan
Gm7
Uh, I miss sitting in the student home
Cm7        
Sharing stories now I simmer sippin', sorta Rome
D7
Walking like I've been talking the talk but can't afford a phone
Gm7
Trust, I'm all alone panicking to play it safe
Gm7
This talk of paper chase is forcing me to stay awake
Cm7
Living this layer cake where others will say you’re straight
D7
Say they got my back and that they're praying Imma pave the way
Gm7
Like it's the great escape brothers doing better than me
Gm7
I'm in a hurry worry, 'what if they forget about me?'
Cm7
I'm just another number nothing when the check will bounce
D7
See now we're moving for money, but there's nothing but debt around me
Gm7
So when the rest have found me buggin' in the brain
Gm7
And I'm somewhere between the struggle and the strain

[Hook]
Cm7
They ask why every fucking song the fucking same
D7
And I tell them it's 'cause ain't nothing changed saying ain't nothing changed


[Chorus]
Gm7
Check, I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed
                      Cm7
Saying, ain't nothing changed

No, 'cause ain't nothing changed
D7
I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Uh, uh, I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Brother, 'cause ain't nothing changed
                     Cm7
Saying, ain't nothing changed

No, 'cause ain't nothing changed
 D7
Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed

[Verse 2]
Gm7
'Cause this is for the men of the house who were far too young
Gm7
See your friends are going out but feel you can't do none
             Cm7
You're raising funds for your mother and your can’t do sons
D7
Up in the rubble raising trouble, what you can’t do’s run
      Gm7
And trust I feel it, I feel it, but can't conceal it, see
Gm7
This inner city responsibility's killing me
Cm7
I start to shiver when I think of all the shit I need
D7
See all my brothers burning paper on that sticky greed
Gm7
Picking the thickest leaves stuck in a mitt
Gm7
Taking a shit, I should have quit but couldn't fucking resist
       Cm7
And now they sit, with a lager, little luck, and a wish
D7
But trust they still blow their mother a kiss
                          Gm7
They're living up in the bits

And slip, stagger through the puddles and the pain
Gm7
Somewhere beneath the rubbles in the rain uh

[Hook]
Cm7
They ask why every fucking song the fucking same
D7
And I tell them it's 'cause ain't nothing changed saying ain't nothing changed

[Chorus]
Gm7
Check, I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed
                      Cm7
Saying, ain't nothing changed

No, 'cause ain't nothing changed
D7
I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Uh, uh, I'm saying ain't nothing changed
Gm7
Brother, 'cause ain't nothing changed
                     Cm7
Saying, ain't nothing changed

No, 'cause ain't nothing changed
 D7
Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed

[Outro]
   Gm7
Uh, I'm saying ain't nothing changed uh
    Gm7
Uh, I'm saying ain't nothing changed
              Cm7
Ain't nothing changed

Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed
D7
Uh, 'cause ain't nothing changed
                      Gm7
Saying ain't nothing changed uh
                          Gm7
Uh, 'cause ain't nothing changed

Ain't nothing changed
                       Cm7
Saying ain't nothing changed uh

Uh, 'cause ain't nothing changed
D7
Trust, 'cause ain't nothing changed
