Lyrics

He took the (Eb)street a lone, just an (Fm)old coat and a (Cm)sax o phone.

An ol’ beat up (Fm7)card board sign,

that’s what his (Db)name (Eb)was scrawled up (Ab)on.

My name was (Eb)up in lights;

(Fm)his soul lit (Cm)up the night.

A voice on a (Fm7)side walk stage,

he held the (Db)crowd a (Eb)mazed.

And the (Fm)sounds that he (Dbmaj7)played

were (Fm)ten der and (Dbmaj7)strong,

(Cbmaj7)then he (Fbmaj7)sang

his (Db)song.

I can (Ab)see

the (Eb)sun

peek in’ (Db)out through them (Ab)clouds.

(Ab7)I can (Db)hear a (Eb)choir of (Ab)spar rows

sing in’ out from them (Db)trees.

There’s a (Ab)new

con stel (Eb)la tion

and I’m (Db)sing in’ it out (Ab)loud.

A (Db)change is (Eb)on the (Fm)way.

I can (Db)feel it in (Ab)me.

(Db)On

a street in the (Eb)heart of town, a (Fm)cold wind, the (Cm)sun goes down,

a crowd starts to (Fm7)gath er ’round

and he’s sing ing for (Db)free.

A soul that can (Eb)move the stars sleeps on (Fm)side walks and (Cm)sub way cars.

The prince of the (Fm7)boul e vard

and he’s down on his (Db)knees.

There was (Fm)hope, joy and (Db9)pain

in (Fm)ev

’ry re frain

when he (Fbmaj7)sang his song a (Db)gain.

Now we (Ab)all

are sin ners if we (Db)look in side our (Ab)selves.

(Ab7)And (Db)love can (Eb)save the (Ab)wretch ed

from life’s own mis er (Db)y.

We are (Ab)born

in his (Eb)good ness; we can (Db)share in his (Ab)wealth.

(Ab7)A (Db)change is (Eb)on the (Fm)way ay ay (Cm7)ay,

I can (Eb)feel it for (Ab)you.

And the (Db)street sing (Eb)er

(Eb)showed me that (Fm)life ain’t (Cm7)fair.

Some peo ple go (Eb)far

and (Cm7)some go no (Fm)where.

Some live with (Eb)love

and (Edim7)some nev er (Fm)do.

And a (Db7)change is on the (Ab)way.

I can (D)feel it for (Ab)you.

Change is on the (Ab)way.

I can (D)feel it for (Ab)you.

Yes, a change

on the way.

I can (Db)feel it for (Ab)you.

Yes, a change

on the way.

I can (Db)feel it for (Ab)you.

Yes, a change

on the way.

I can (Db)feel it for (Ab)you.

Yes, a change

on the way.

(D)I can feel it.

(CN.C.)I can feel it.

I can feel it for

(Ab)you!
