F         G
Sit by my side
        C             Am
Come as close as the air
F          G         Em
Share in a memory of gray
    Am           F
And wander in my words
G               C
Dream about the pictures
      Am - F - G C
That I paint of changes

F               G
Green leaves of summer
C               Am
Turn red in the fall
F               G
To brown and to yellow
Em
They fade
Am                    F
And then they have to die
G                  C
Trapped within the circle time
Am - F - G     C
Parade of changes

F            G
Scenes of my young years
    C          Am
Are warm in my mind
F          G            Em
Visions of shadows that shine
Am             F
Till one day I returned
G                       C
And found they were the victims
       Am - F - G    C
Of the vines of changes

F                    G
The world's spinning madly
C                Am
It drifts in the dark
F                G         Em
Swings through a hollow of haze
Am                 F
A race around the stars
(A race around the stars)
   G                   C        Am - F - G
A journey through the universe ablaze
(A journey through the universe ablaze)
     C
With changes

F                  G
Your tears will be trembling
C                   Am
Now we're somewhere else
F               G             Em
One last cup of wine, we will pour
         Am                F
And I'll kiss you one more time
G                    C
And leave you on the rolling
       Am - F - G   C
River shores of changes

Am                     F
I'll kiss you one more time
(I'll kiss you one more time)
G                    C             Am - F - G
And leave you on the rolling river shores
(And leave you on the rolling river shores)
   C
Of changes
