A#m                      F#
He was a man like you or me,
                   C#/F          G#           D#
And i called him a drifter and knocked our enemy,
A#m                                        F#
They caught him sail away when he was loved,
                  C#/F            G#                   D#
but that was only after they had buried him under the earth,

Chorus:
F#          C#                D#
You can't stop the winds of change,
F#          C#                D#
You can't stop the winds of change,
        B                A#             D#m C# B A#m G#m
Because everything that coming will be rearranged,
                                   D#m
When you can't stop the winds of change,

He happened to be in the city when
Cassandra left them and they chopped us into the sand
And she was a barrister of the courts, she still couldn't decide
For what was right and what was the law

Chorus

D#m
And he was a man like you or me,
D#m
they shoot him down in the beat of his life,
D#m
a New York-man and an English face,
D#m
No place in the world will receive him,

Chorus:
You can't stop the winds of change
You can't stop the winds of change
Because everything that's coming will be rearranged
You can't stop the winds of change

Leave your, leave your love
Leave your, leave your, leave your love
Leave your, leave your, leave your love
