🎸 Verse 1:
G        C/G      D/A C/G  G
Change, like the wind, like the water, like skin
G        C/G      D/A  C/G   G
Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly



🎸 Chorus 1:
G               C/G
Would you live forever, never die?
   D/A     C/G G
While everything around passes
G               C/G
Would you smile forever, never cry?
   D/A      C/G G
While everything you know passes

🎸 Verse 2:
G       C/G    D/A  C/G     G
Death, like a door, to a place we've never been before
G      C/G    D/A   C/G G
Death, like space, the deep sea, a suitcase

🎸 Chorus 2:
G               C/G
Would you stare forever at the sun?
D/A       C/G   G
Never watch the moon risin'
G               C/G
Would you walk forever in the light?
  D/A        C/G     G
To never learn the secrets of the quiet night

🎸 Verse 3:
G       C/G  D/A    C/G   G
Still, like a stone, like a hill, like home
G        C/G       D/A  C/G  G
Still... what I find, is you are always on my mind

🎸 Chorus 3:
G           C/G
Could I feel happy for you?
    D/A        C/G     G
When I hear you talk with her like we used to
G           C/G
Could I set everything free?
    D/A        C/G       G
When I watch you holding her the way you once held me

🎸 Outro:
G        C/G      D/A  C/G   G
Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly

Hint: Just move the C/G shape up two frets to get the D/A chord.
