(Verse)
'Cause it's a [D] bitter[Am7]sweet
[Gsus4] sympho[G]ny that's
[D] li-[Am7]ife
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...
Trying to [D] make ends [Am7] meet,
you're [Gsus4] a slave to the [G] money then you
[D] die [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G]
I'll take you [D] down the [Am7] only
[Gsus4] road I've [G] ever
[D] been down [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...
You know the [D] one that [Am7] takes you
to the [Gsus4] places where [G] all the veins
[D] meet, yeah [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...

(Chorus)
[D] No change, I [Am7] can change,
I can [Gsus4] change, I can [G] change
But I'm [D] here in my [Am7] mould,
I am here [Gsus4] in my [G] mould

[Gsus4] ... [G] ...
I need to [D] hear some [Am7] sounds that
[Gsus4] recognize the [G] pain in
[D] me, yeah [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...
I let the [D] ... melody [Am7] shine,
let it [Gsus4] cleanse my [G] mind,
I feel [D] free now [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...
but the [D] airwaves are [Am7] clean
and there's [Gsus4] nobody [G] singing
to me [D] now [Am7] ...
[Gsus4] ... [G] ...

(Chorus)
[D] No change, I [Am7] can change,
I can [Gsus4] change, I can [G] change
But I'm [D] here in my [Am7] mould,
I am here [Gsus4] in my [G] mould
But I'm a [D] million different [Am7] people
from one [Gsus4] day to the [G] next
I can't change [D] my mould, [Am7] no no
[Gsus4] no no [G] no no
[D] ...(and have you ever been down?)
I can't [Am7] change it you [Gsus4] know, I can't [G] change it...
