(Intro)
Em7 C D C
Em7 C D
(Verse)
Em7 C D C
I'm blessed with a heart that doesn't stop
Em7 C G D
My minds a weathervane it spins around just like a top
Em7 C D C
Knows what the winds of fortune bring in the season of the witch
Em7 C G D
Home is a perjury, a parlor trick, an urban myth
(Chorus)
G D C D
Oh how the circumstances change, oohoho
G D Am D
This world is smoke and steel, compromise and meter maids
G D C D
I'm going to leave here before to long, ohooho
G D Am C
Zigzagging toward the light, I'm off to sing my bounder song
(Interlude)
Em7 C D C
Em7 C D
(Verse)
Em7 C D C
True love it hides like city stars
Em7 C G D
Nothing to gaze upon or contemplate how near or far
Em7 C D C
If it comes, it comes quite unannounced, a momentary glance
Em7 C G D
Lit up by sun or moon or bonfire or ambulance
(Chorus)
G D C D
Oh how the circumstances change, oohoho
G D Am D
Feels unmistakable, with no idea from where it came
G D C D
But you will know it when it's gone
G D Am C
Zigzagging through the night, half dead you sing your bounders song
(C-Part)
Em7 G C B7
half dead you sing your bounder song?
Em7 G C B7
Half dead you sing? Half dead you sing?
C G B7 C
Sing for the bounders, whose word is never kept
C G B7
A bandeau of flowers to stay his mind and bloom when he forgets
(Interlude)
Em7 C D C
Em7 C D
(Verse)
Em7 C D C
It's true that shadows tell the time
Em7 C G D
On sunny afternoons, on crowded sidewalks, passersby
Em7 C D C
I'm in a queue that stretches out far as the eye can see
Em7 C G D
It forms a figure eight and goes on for eternity
(Chorus)
G D C D
Oh how the circumstances change (oohoho)
G D Am D
I fly by interstate across a purple mountain range
G D C D
I find a place to come undone (oohoho)
G D Am C
Zigzagging toward you now, I sing out loud our bounders song
(Outro)
G D C D (4x)
Em G B7 Em (4x)

Just a few corrections to the lyrics. "this world is smoke and steel","I'm off to sing my bounders song","Zigzagging through the night, half dead you sing your bounders song", "half dead you sing your bounders song, half dead you sing your bounders song, half dead you sing, half dead you sing", "sing for the bounders, whose word is never kept, and bindle of flower to stay his mind" "I'm in a cube that stretches out", thanks!
