[Intro]
Cmaj7 C#6 Dm7 Eb7 F7 D F7 D F7
 
[Verse 1]
C                       Em                     F                        G       F
Still don't know what I was waiting for and my time was running wild, a million dead end streets and
C                        Em                        F                G
Every time I thought I'd got it made it seemed the taste was not so sweet...
     Cmaj7    Dm        Em         Dm                       G
So I turned myself to face me, but I've never caught a glimpse
           Cmaj7       Dm        Em                Dm
Of how the others must see the faker, I'm much too fast to take that test...
 
[Chorus 1]
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F     F/E                 D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! Don't want to be a richer man
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F     F/E                 D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! It's gonna have to be a different man         
F    C   Bb     F
Time may change me
    C  G    F     C
But I can't trace time
 
[Verse 2]
C                    Em                     F                        G       F
I watch the ripples change their size, but never leave the stream of warm impermanence
C                       Em                 F                        G
And so the days float through my eyes, but still the days seem the same
          Cmaj7    Dm        Em             Dm                       G
And these children that you spit on, as they try to change their worlds
    Cmaj7      Dm          Em                   Dm
Are immune to your consultations, they're quite aware of what they're going through
 
[Chorus 2]
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F                   F/E        D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F                     F/E               D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! Wheres your shame you left us up to our necks in it          
  
F    C   Bb     F
Time may change me
    C   G     F     C
But you can't trace time
 
[Bridge]
F                       C         F/C  C
Strange fascination fascinating me,
F                          G                 G7
Oh, changes are taking the pace I'm going through
 
[Chorus 3]
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F    F/E            D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! Look out you rock n rollers
G          F C        C/B            C/A    C/G  F           F/E                   D
Ch-ch-ch-ch, Turn and face the strange, changes! Pretty soon now you are gonna get older            
F    C   Bb     F
Time may change me
    C  G    F     C
But I can't trace time, I said that
F    C   Bb     F
Time may change me
C  G    F     C
But I can't trace time

I believe that on the last 2 lines of each verse there should be an A#dim7 (x 1 2 0 2 0) after each Em.
