Tom: C#m
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb Db
I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb Db
As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat this wind is blowin' my mind
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb
I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat
Db
Who am I, to be blind? Pretending not to see their needs
Bbm7 Db/C
A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top
Db Db/C
And a one man's soul
Bbm7 Db/C
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
Db Eb
'Cause they got nowhere to go
Ab
That's why I want you to know
Chorus:
Ab Ab/C Db Eb
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
Ab Ab/C Db Bb/D
And no message could have been any clearer
Ebm
If you wanna make the world a better place
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb Db Eb
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb Db
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love, It's time that I realize
Ab Eb/G Fm Eb
There are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Db
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
Bbm7 Db/C
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
Db Db/C
And a washed-out dream
Abm7 Db/C
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see
Db Eb
Cause they got no place to be
Ab
That's why I'm starting with me
Chorus X2
A A/Db D E
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
I'm asking him to change his ways
A A/Db D B/Eb
No message could have been any clearer
Em
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
You gotta get it right, while you got the time
'Cause when you close your heart
A
Then you close your... mind!
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
I'm asking him to change his ways
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that change
A E/Ab Gbm E D
