I’m gon na make a change

It’s gon na feel real good, gon na make a dif f’rence, gon na make it right.
As I turn up the (D)col lar on my fa v’rite (D)win ter coat, this wind is blow in’ my mind.
I see the kids in the street with not e (Em)nough to eat; who am I (Cmaj7)to be blind, pre tend ing not to see their needs?
A sum mer’s dis re gard, a bro ken bot tle top,
and a one man’s soul.
They (Am7)fol low each oth er on the wind, (G)ya’ know,
’cause they got no where to go; that’s why I want you to know.
I’m start ing with the (C)man in the (C)mir ror,
I’m ask ing him to (C)change his ways.
And no mes sage could have (C)been an y (A)clear er: If you (D)wan na make the world a bet ter place, take a look at your self and then make a (C)change.
Na na na (D)na na na na (C)na na nah.

A wil low deep ly scarred, some bod y’s bro ken heart

They (Am7)fol low the pat tern of the wind, (G)ya see,
’cause they got no place to be; that’s why I’m start ing with me.
