What's the song about?
Don't be changed people.
I mean, like, I've been going through my changes.
Oh, wow, my head is in another place altogether.
You know?
[C#] And there's always somebody who doesn't want to let you go through your changes.
They say, fine, I'm the
How dare you change on me?
Like, maybe it could be your neighbors or your
or your friends or your mother doesn't want you to go out and get that shocking pink mohawk.
[G] [E] Because you just can't get into it.
I don't know why.

But I happen to have written a song about that.
Sometimes I'm so cosmic, [B] I freak myself out.
[G] [F] Why don't you write your [C] mother?
[F] Why don't you [F] call your family?
They're [F#] [Em] [Bm] expecting [A] [Em] an [Bm] answer.
Spare them your [Em] strange [Bm] behavior.
[F] What of your [C] expectations?
[F] Weren't you going to show [C] us all [F#] some [Bm] new kind of [Em] dancer?
[Bm] This season's [G] singing savior.
I'm [C] too [G] far [C] gone.
And it's no use [G] pretending [C] I [G] could ever forget [D] what I've done.
I'm [G] already too [G] far [C] gone.
I got no [G] bridges left [C] to burn.
[G] It's better to [Bm] keep [F#m] moving on.
[D] It's such a long [G] way down.
[D#] Too [Gm] far to [F] fall.
Too much [C] trouble [G] to turn [D] back around.
[F] Think of your [C] friends [F] and [C] neighbors.
[F] [C] Suffering through [F] your [C] lamest years.
[F#] You [Em] must [Bm] hold them [B] some pain.
Come [Bm] now, [A] you [Em] must [Bm] remember.
[F] Haven't [C] you [F] finished [C] playing?
[F] Get down to [C] business [F] soon.
[C] Because [F#] your [Em] lean [Bm] years are [Em] coming.
[B] June [Em] [D] now, but [Em] come [D]
[G] December.
I'm [C] too [G] far [C] gone.
And it's no [G] use pretending [C] I [G] could ever [D] forget what I've done.
I'm [G] already [C] too [G] far [C] gone.
I got no [G] bridges left to [C] burn.
It's [G] better to [D] keep [F#m] moving on.
[D] It's such a [F#m]
[G] long way down.
[Gm] Too [F] far to fall.
Too much trouble to [G] turn [D] back around.
