Phil Ochs - Changes Lyrics
Pre>capo 1st fretIntro: g/a/d/em/g/a/f#m/bm/em/a/d/em/a/dG a d emSit by my side, come as close as the air,G a f#mShare in a memory of gray;Bm em a dWander in my words, dream about the picturesEm a dThat I play of changes.Green leaves of summer turn red in the fallTo brown and to yellow they fade.And then they have to die, trapped withinThe circle time parade of changes.Scenes of my young years were warm in my mind,Visions of shadows that shine.Til one day I returned and found they were theVictims of the vines of changes.The worlds spinning madly, it drifts in the darkSwings through a hollow of haze,A race around the stars, a journey throughThe universe ablaze with changes.Moments of magic will glow in the nightAll fears of the forest are goneBut when the morning breaks theyre swept away byGolden drops of dawn, of changes.Passions will part to a strange melody.As fires will sometimes burn cold.Like petals in the wind, were puppets to the silverStrings of souls, of changes.Your tears will be trembling, now were somewhere else,One last cup of wine we will pourAnd Ill kiss you one more time, and leave you onThe rolling river shores of changes.(repeat first verse)/pre>
