The Beautiful Changes

F Dm Bbm  F

[Verse 1]
                               Am
The green-covered place that I went to in spring
       Gm                    Em
With a notebook and what cigarettes I could bring
    A7                      Dm
The cloverleaf crossing now ties in a ring
            Bbm       F
And how the beautiful changes


[Verse 2]
                                  Am
When the men with a dream who are never refused
     Gm                 Em
Drum up the exciting to reap the unused
    A7                       Dm
The lovers are judged and condemned unaccused
        Bbm                     F
And the beautiful dies with the harvest


[Verse 3]
                                 Am
Now the loveliest creatures that god ever made
     Gm                       Em
Have all picked a partner and joined the parade
              A7                     Dm
Where they'll crack up together from making the grade
            Bbm       F
And how the beautiful changes


[Verse 4]

                                 Am
They pull into the kerb and they crowd out the bars
Gm                    Em
Watching an astronaut fall toward Mars
     A7                      Dm
He's talking in clichés that put out the stars
        Bbm                     F
And the beautiful dies with the harvest


[Verse 5]
                          Am
Too late is the way a man finally learns
    Gm                   Em
The light of salvation recedes and returns
       A7                          Dm
As you freeze with the cold or you croak from the burns
            Bbm       F
And how the beautiful changes


[Verse 6]
                               Am
In the pink of the sunset high over the park
    Gm                           Em
The con-trails are tracing their spiral and arc
       A7                       Dm
As the angels turn eastwards to fight back the dark
        Bbm                     F
And the beautiful dies with the harvest


[Verse 7]
                           Am
With gaps in the fabric, regrets never mend
     Gm                  Em
I've seen the eternities crawl to their end
    A7                 Dm
The comedown of many a fine-feathered friend
            Bbm       F
And how the beautiful changes


[Verse 8]
                                    Am
There's a fine line between love of living and greed
        Gm                   Em
Say the men of affairs and deliberate speed
       A7                 Dm
As the ugly goes into the ground with the seed
        Bbm                     F
And the beautiful dies with the harvest



[Verse 9]
                                Am
Now the fire of redemption is a guttering flame
  Gm                Em
A man is an image before he's a name
        A7                      Dm
And the deadly arrangement that fixes the game
       G7                 Bb
Is the way the inhuman is always the same
    Dm      Bbm       F
And how the beautiful changes
