Lan guage bar ri ers bro ken, now we’ve found it the key.

And if you (Dm)want the wind of change to blow a bout you and you’re the on ly oth er per son to (E7)know, don’t tell me.

I’m just a sing er in a rock and roll band.

A thou sand pic tures can be drawn from one word, on ly who is the art ist?

who We got ta a gree.

A thou sand miles ’ling can lead so man y ways.

Just to know who is driv ing, what a help it would be.

So if you (Dm)want this world of yours to turn a bout you and you can see ex act ly what son to (E7)do, please tell me.

I’m just a sing er in a rock and roll band.

How can we un der stand (Dm)ri ots by the peo ple for the (G7)peo ple who are on ly de (Em7)stroy ing them (Am)selves,
