Intro: E Bm7 Dsus2 A (violin riff — tab at bottom)
E Bm7 Dsus2 A E Bm7 Dsus2 A
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony that's life
E Bm7 Dsus2 A E Bm7 Dsus2 A
Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
E Bm7 Dsus2 A
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
E Bm7 Dsus2 A
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
E Bm7 Dsus2 A
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next
E Bm7 Dsus2 A E Bm7 Dsus2 A
I can't change my mould, no no no no no no
E Bm7 Dsus2 A
Well, I've never prayed but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
but the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no no no no no no (and have you ever been down?)
Bm7 Dsus2 A E Bm7 Dsus2 A
I can't change it you know, I can't change it...
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony that's life
Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die
You know I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no no no no no
I can't change my mould, no no no no no
I can't change my mould, no no no no
(It's just sex and violence, melody and silence)...
E Bm7 Dsus2 A E Bm7 Dsus2 A
(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)...
(Been down)
(Ever been down)
