THE MORE THINGS CHANGE (Mary-Chapin Carpenter)

----------------------------------------------

[Capo 3]

[Each chord is one measure]

[Actually, the Em's almost sound like E5's and the A's in the verse

sound like A5's...]

Em Em Em Em

[intro]

Em Em

Well I think of you sometimes at night

Em Em

And sometimes it's still the same

Em Em B7 B7

The way that it was when I was the keeper of your flame

Em Em

We all have our ghosts, we all have our doubts

A G

I'm no different with you or without

Em B7 Em Em

But one thing's certain: only the names have changed

And I think of you sometimes baby

When an old friend gives a call

And to hear us talk you'd think I felt nothing at all

'Cause nothing remains that used to be yours

We all have our way of closing the door

But it takes some time to get up when you fall

A G

But I'm the same sweet girl you couldn't get enough of

Em A

Way back when you pledged your love

Em Em B7 B7

And you'd drive to find me through the pouring rain

A G

Now I hear all about your running around

Em A

Man you're a legend all over town

Em B7 Em Em

The more things change, the more they remain the same

[Guitar solo, same chords as verse]

Sometimes I wonder if you've ever heard

The sound of a broken heart

It ain't real pretty, it ain't the thing the nice folks talk about

And the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

Is face the one who's done it to you

His eye's like an angel's, they're so devout

But I'm the same sweet girl you couldn't get enough of

Way back when you pledged your love

And you'd drive to find me through the pouring rain

Now I hear all about your running around

Man you're a legend all over town

The more things change, the more they remain the same

Now I hear all about your running around

Man you're a legend all over town

The more things change, the more they remain the same
