G D G

  D                G                
Change has got to come and
             D                 G
I'll be the first to admit it
      D                 G
When pushin' comes to shovin'
             D                  G
I'll be the first one to get it

G*
          E                     G*
Don't you understand anything?
           E
You won't like it at all
          D                       F#m
when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes
       Bm                     G
Take another disguise with a different face
       D                     F#m
And it all gets down to the people in our town
            Bm                   G
they don't wanna be found in the other place

D G

  D            G                     D               G
Who am I to argue the words of our prominent leaders?
   D                       G
A little boy stepping in front of his mom
          D                     G
when his dad starts to beat her

G*
          E                     G*
Don't you understand anything?
           E
You won't like it at all
          D                       F#m
when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes
       Bm                     G
Take another disguise with a different face
       D                     F#m
And it all gets down to the people in our town
            Bm                   G
they don't wanna be found in the other place

D G

  F                             Cm                 G   C
Changing is an awful task with rules laid out for you
But things are different now
       D
And a new world is dying to push through

G D G

  D                G                
Change has got to come and
             D                 G
I'll be the first to admit it
      D                 G
When pushin' comes to shovin'
             D                  G
I'll be the first one to get it

          D                       F#m
when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes
       Bm                     G
Take another disguise with a different face

And it all gets down to the people in our town
            Bm                   G
they don't wanna be found in the other place
