 I've been living through changes

 And I could swing for you
 I can see the veins  in
 my hands  are showing through
 And if you disguise  what
   ( )
 these things are doing to me
 Well if you critize  them
 I know  that you can see
 Until you realise
 It's just a story
 Consequently my reaction's
 getting rather strange
 But I can see your course of action
 Leading to a change

 You gotta get ready for me-ee
  Is it real
  Or is it treason?
 Is it treason?
 I've been living through changes
 It's not the same thing every day
 I hope it's not my age but
 I wouldn't like to say
 Mirror hopping days of coarse reaction
 Oh it's very hard to fight
 I gotta find a plan of action
 But I couldn't get it right
 Until you realise

[Bm]  I've been living through [Em]changes

    [A]                  [G] ([F#m] [Em] [D])
And I could swing for you

[Bm] I can see the [Em]veins in

my [A]hands are showing [G]through

[Bm]  And if you dis[Em]guise what

      [A]                     [G]  ([F#m] [Em] [D])
these things are doing to me

[Bm] Well if you criti[Em]ze them

I [A]know that you can [G]see

[the riff I tabbed out in the start is played here]
Until you [D]realise   [Bm]

It's just a [D]story     [Bm]

[repeat]

Consequently my reaction's
getting rather strange
But I can see your course of action
Leading to a change

I've been living through changes
It's not the same thing every day
I hope it's not my age but
I wouldn't like to say

Mirror hopping days of coarse reaction
Oh it's very hard to fight
I gotta find a plan of action
But I couldn't get it right

Until you realise [chorus]
