G D
I'm gonna make a
Em D
change, for once in
C
my life
G D
It's gonna feel real good,
Em D
gonna make a difference, gonna make
C
it right
G D Em
As I, turn up the collar on my
D C
favorite winter coat, this wind is blowin' my mind
G D
I see the kids in the street,
Em
with not enough
D
to eat
C
Who am I, to be blind, pretending not to see
their needs
Am7 G
A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top
C G
And a one man's soul
Am7
They follow each other on the wind
G
ya' know
C D
'Cause they got nowhere to go
G
That's why I want you to know
G G C
I'm starting with the man in
D
the mirror
G G C
I'm asking him to change
D
his ways
G G C A
And no message could have been any clearer
Dm
If you wanna make the world a
better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make
G D
a change
Em D C
Na na na, na na na na, na na, na
D
na, uh-huh
G D
I've been a victim
Em D
of a selfish kind of love, It's time that
C
I realize
G
There are some with
D Em
no home, not a nickel
D
to loan
C
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
Am7 G
A willow deeply scarred, somebody broken heart
C G
And a washed-out dream
Am7
They follow the pattern of the wind,
G
ya' see
C
'Cause they got no place
D
to be
That's why I'm starting
G
with me
G G C
I'm starting with the man in
D
the mirror
G G C
I'm asking him to change
D
his ways
G G C A
And no message could have been any clearer
