Lyrics

Nothing Changes
(© by Rick Moody in the 60s)

Am D
And you thought that nothing changes
Am D
And that life’s a pretty game
Am D
And the sun would keep on shining
C D
And that everyone’s the same
G D
And you try to find an answer as you
C D
spin around inside
G D
And you search your soul for hours,
C A
but you find that it has died
C Em D
Yes you find that it has died


Am D
And you try to find the pieces
Am D
Just to hold them in the sun
Am D
But you find that something’s missing
C Em D
And that it’s the Holy one
G D
And you try to find an answer as you
C D
spin around inside
G D
And you search your soul for hours,
C A
but you find that it has died
C Em D
Yes you find that it has died


Am D
And then you think just maybe
Am D
That there’s something left outside
Am D
But you hear the sound of thunder
C Em D
Come to take you for a ride
G D
And you try to find an answer as you
C D
spin around inside
G D
And you search your soul for hours,
C A
but you find that it has died
C Em D
Yes you find that it has died
