Version 1[Verse 1] G A D Em Sit by my side, come as close as the air, G A F#m Bm Em Share in a memory of gray, and wander in my words, A D Em A A D dream about the pictures that I play, of changes. [Verse 2] G A D Em Green leaves of summer, turn red in the fall, to G A F#m Bm Em brown and to yellow they fade, and then they have to die, A D Em A A D trapped within the circle time parade, of changes. [Verse 3] G A D Em Scenes of my young years were warm in my mind, G A F#m Bm Em Visions of shadows that shine, 'til one day I returned, and A D Em A A D found they were the victims of the vines, of changes. [Verse 4] G A D Em The world's spinning madly, it drifts in the dark, G A F#m Bm Em Swings through a hollow of haze, a race around the stars, a A D Em A A D journey through the universe ablaze, with changes. (instrumental verse) [Verse 5] G A D Em Moments of magic will glow in the night, all G A F#m Bm Em fears of the forest are gone, but when the morning breaks, they're A D Em A A D swept away by golden drops of dawn, of changes. [Verse 6] G A D Em Passions will part, to a strange melody, as G A F#m Bm Em fires will sometimes burn cold, like petals in the wind, we're A D Em A A D puppets to the silver strings of souls, of changes. [Verse 7] G A D Em Your tears will be trembling, now we're somewhere else, one G A F#m Bm Em last cup of wine we will pour, and I'll kiss you one more time and A D Em A A D leave you on the rolling river shores, of changes. [Verse 8] G A D Em So sit by my side, come as close as the air, G A F#m Bm Em Share in a memory of gray, and wander in my words, A D Em A A D dream about the pictures that I play, of changes.
