| C | Am | Dm | F | C | G | |
| You can tell a changing | heart | two faces | smile and yet there | is no | joy |
| C | Am | |
| They look for wealth no matter | what the cost |
| Dm | F | C | G | |
| Just someone | else they might | just dystro | y |
| Am | D7 | Dm | |
| So many people gather | round a thousand voices lift their | praise for |
| you |
| F | C | G | |
| Have | reached the top | so they give you a | ll they got |
| Am | D7 | Dm | |
| But when your singing from the | soul they fail to see your final | goal |
| F | C | G | |
| They only | tell you that you | have a long ways l | eft to go |
| C | Am | |
| So you rhyme the changing | line |
| Dm | F | C | G | |
| With one wheel | spinning and one | on the gr | ound |
| C | Am | |
| And falling victim to the | game of time |
| Dm | F | C | G | |
| You place your | name out in the | lost and | found |
| Am | D7 | Dm | |
| S | o many people gather | round a thousand voices lift their | praise for |
| you |
| F | C | G | |
| Have | reached the top | so they give you a | ll they got |
| Am | D7 | Dm | |
| But when your singing from the | soul they fail to see your final | goal |
| F | C | G | |
| They only | tell you that you | have a long ways l | eft to go |
