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