Everything Changes

Tom: Em

A                    G#m
It's a matter of choices
G                F#m
And a matter of time
F                  G         A
For you it's a matter of drive
                 G#m
You will let nothing
G            F#m
Get in your way
F               Em
You set to conquer
A
Each single day

Em            A
Everything Changes
D        D/C#     G
But change itself
               F#m
You can take out
            B         B/A
What you think you know
          Em          A         D
Put it back on the shelf

A                 G#m
And would you believe me
G                  F#m
If I'd spoke my mind?
F                  Em
'Cause nobody gets there
A
They just try try try

Em            A
Everything Changes
D            D/C#     G
But change itself
        F#m               B     B/A
Like a bird you'd sooner fly away
Em                       A
But you're stuck in yourself
Em               A
As everything changes
     D  D/C#  G
We stay the same
            F#m
You keep turning
          B          A
Before long you're going to find out
Em          A          D
What's in a name


G  O     [A     G#m     G     F#m     F     G     A]


A                      G#m
So you look for the answer
G               F#m
Then pull it apart
F                              Em
Tear it up 'til there's nothing there
          A
'Cause it hurts your heart

Em             A
Everything Changes
          D  D/C#  G
And for what you lack
            F#m
You keep turning
        B           B/A          Em
Before long you're going to find out
Em             A
Everything Changes
          D  D/C#  G
It's not hard to tell
        F#m               B
Like a bird you'd sooner fly away
