David Bowie - Changes
-----------------------

>From the album "Hunky Dory", 1971

G13 == 322231
G11 == XX0211
Bb(add9) == X10311

C Em
I Still dont know what i was waiting for
F G
And my time was running wild,
F
A million dead-end streets.
C Em
And every time i thought i'd got it made
F G13
It seems the taste was not so sweet,
C Dm7 Em7 Ebm7
So i turned my self to face me
Dm7 G7
But I've never caught a glimpse
C Dm7 Em7 Ebm7
Of how the others must see the faker
Dm7 G7
I'm much too fast to take that test

F C Em Am
Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange.
C F Am D
Ch-ch-ch-changes, you wanna be a richer man,
G7 F C Em Am C F
Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange.
Am D
It's gonna be a different man.
Am G Bb(add 9) F Am G G11 C
Time may change me -- but i cant trace time

-- oh yeah --

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence.
And so the days flow thru my eyes
But the days still seem the same.
And this children you spit on
As they try to change their worlds,
Are immune to your consultations.
Theyr'e quite aware of what they're going thru.

Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-ch-changes, don't tell them to grow up and out of it.
Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-ch-changes, there's your shame,
you've left us up yo our neck in it.
Time may change me, but you can't trace time.

Strange fascination fascinating me.
Oh changes are taking the place I'm going thru.
Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange,
Ch-ch-ch-changes, Oh look out you Rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-ch-changes, pretty soon now you're gonna get a little older.
Time may change me, But i can't trace time.

The Chords by Guez Ofer are completely spot on...good work...
All that was missing was the intro...which wasn't too hard to tab out:
Here it is:

Intro: (FM)
(played by trumpets+piano in the original song...)
A F
e:-------------------1-----|
B:-------------------1-----|
G:--2-2-2-2-2-2-2----2-----|x2
D:--2-2-2-2-2-4-2----3-----|
A:--0-0-4------------3-----|
E:-------------------1-----|
Yeah....

Repeated twice. It also comes up once or twice during the song.

Also Guez didn't put the chords for this bit. I figured out these
chords at home but I forgot to write them... Off the top of my head:

C Am F C F
Strange fascinations fascinating me
C Am G7
Oh changes are taking the place I'm going thru.

This is probably wrong....just thought you should know that it's
missing.
