Lyrics

I am not (C)done (F)chang (C)ing.

Out on the run, (G)chang (C)ing.

I may be old and I may be young but I am not done (F)chang (C)ing.

I met me some (C)one (F)chang (C)ing.

We had some fun (G)chang (C)ing.

Some times I won der if be the one but when I am done (F)chang (C)ing.

I met me some

(G)Some of us stopped run ning,

(G)some of us went home.

(Am)Some of us don’t got one,

so we’ll (F)build one of our own.

Friends be hind their fenc es,

(G)look ing at me strange,

(Am)won d’ring when I’m gon na come to my sens es but I’m still (G)chang ing and (F)I can’t (G)change my ways.

I see the sky (F)chang (C)ing, re minds me of my (G)chang (C)ing.

Wish I could chain me a rope ’round the sun ’cause I am not done (F)chang (C)ing.

(G)Time’s been talk ing to me,

(G)whis p’ring in my ear,

say ing, (Am)“Fol low your heart ’til it tears you a part.” But (F)hearts keep (G)chang ing, (F)hearts keep (G)chang ing.

(Dm7)Hearts keep (Dm6)chan ging, (Dm7)hearts keep (Dm6)chang ing.

(Dm7)Hearts keep (Dm6)chan ging, (Dm7)hearts keep (Dm6)chang ing.

(F)I am not (C)done (F)chang (C)ing.

Out on the run, (G)chang (C)ing.

I may be old and I may be young, but I am not done (F)chang (C)ing.

(F)Chang (C)ing.

(G)Chang (C)ing.
