[G G] Still don't know what I was [Bm Bm] waiting for
And my [C C] time was running [D7 D7] wild a million [C C] dead-end streets and
[G G] Every time I thought I'd [Bm Bm] got it made
It seemed the [C C] taste was not so [D7 D7] sweet
So I [Gmaj7 Gmaj7] turned my[Am Am]self to [Bm Bm] face me [Bbm Bbm]
But [Am Am] I've never caught a glimpse [D7 D7]
Of how the [Gmaj7 Gmaj7] others must [Am Am] see the [Bm Bm] faker [Bbm Bbm]
I'm much too [Am Am] fast to take that test [D7 D7]
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C] Don't [Em Em] want to be a [A A] richer man [D7 D7]
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C] Just [Em Em] gonna have to be a [A A] different man
[Em Em] Time [D D] may [Fadd9 Fadd9] change [C C] me but [Em Em] I [D D] can't trace [G G] time
[G G] I watch the ripples [Bm Bm] change their size
But [C C] never leave the [D7 D7] stream of warm im[C C]permanence and
[G G] So the days float [Bm Bm] through my eyes
But [C C] still the days seem the [D7 D7] same
And these [Gmaj7 Gmaj7] children [Am Am] that you [Bm Bm] spit on [Bbm Bbm]
As they [Am Am] try to change their worlds [D7 D7]
Are im[Gmaj7 Gmaj7]mune to your [Am Am] consul[Bm Bm]tations [Bbm Bbm]
They're quite a[Am Am]ware of what they're going through [D7 D7]
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C] Don't [Em Em] tell them to grow up and [A A] out of it [D7 D7]
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C]
Where's your [Em Em] shame you've left us up to our [A A] necks in it
[Em Em] Time [D D] may [Fadd9 Fadd9] change [C C] me but [Em Em] you [D D] can't trace [G G] time
[C C] Strange fascination fascin[G G]ating me
[C C] Changes are taking the [D7 D7] pace I'm going through
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C] Oh look [Em Em] out you rock and [A A] rollers [D7 D7]
[D7 D7] Ch-ch-ch-ch-[C C] changes [G G] turn and [Bm Bm] face the [Em Em] strange
[Em Em] Ch-ch-[G G] changes [C C] Pretty soon [Em Em] now you're gonna get [A A] older
[Em Em] Time [D D] may [Fadd9 Fadd9] change [C C] me but [Em Em] I [D D] can't trace [G G] time
I said that [Em Em] time [D D] may [Fadd9 Fadd9] change [C C] me but [Em Em] I [D D] can't trace [G G] time

Really good, but holy wall of text, Batman, this is hard to read. Chord placement is great, but some paragraph spacing for verse vs. chorus would be good. Missing the Fadd9 chord link, too. This is almost a really great tab! Keep at it.

About this song: Changes

This started out as a parody of a nightclub song - a kind of throwaway - but people kept chanting for it at concerts. Bowie had no idea it was going to become so popular. For more information and trivia on "Changes" check out http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=3414/.
