Everything Must Change — Paul Young

Chords and lyrics for Everything Must Change by Paul Young (key of Gm).

Verse 1

By Paul Young
From: "The Secret of Association", 1984

Intro

[G] [Cadd9] [Dsus4]
[G] [Cadd9] [Dsus4]

Verse

[G]I was never one to back out of an [G7]argument and say I was [C]wrong.
[Am]Even when I'd seen the other side I'd [D]hide my foolishness[G] and [Cadd9]carry on.
[Dsus4]
[G]But still I'd be embarrassed 'cos they'd [G7]see what happened and [C]they'd play
along.
[Am]Until I back myself into a corner I [D]would only realize [G]when [Cadd9]they had
[Dsus4]gone.

Chorus

Verse

[G]In the same way when we disagree I [G7]wouldn't be the one to back [C]down.
Still I'd [Am]know that you had faith in me. [D]Tell me [G]something, am [Cadd9]I
[Dsus4]letting you down?
[G]'Cos when I woke up and I saw the [G7]note you pressed into the mirror [C]frame
[Am]but it was easy to be angry at ya but [D]deep inside I know [G]we [Cadd9]share the
[Dsus4]blame.

Chorus

Bridge

[G]I'm going back to the top to start myself off
[G7]but first of all somethings I need to know.[C]
When I'm scared of [Am]being wrong again,
[D]won't you be the one I turn to
to let me [G]know, oh, let me [Cadd9]know, [Dsus4]oh.
[G]Please, let me be right for once
[G7]'cos right now all I feel I do is [C]wrong
and it's [Am]never too late to learn about love
and this [D]victim needs your hand...
to hold [G]on.[Dsus4][Cadd9]

Chorus

And like a [Bb]dream, a [F]life, a [Gm]reason,[Bb7]
Everything must[Eb] change...
(Everything, everything. Everything must change)
And like a [Bb]world, this [F]earth and [Gm]seasons[Bb7]
Everything must[Eb] change...
(Everything, everything. Everything must [G]change.)
(Repeat and Ad-Lib Soulful Glib as necessary) ;)
So this evening I went to find the chords to a few Paul Young songs (this
included) and
discovered (to my shock) that NO ONE out there seemed to have them! Hey
man, it's PAUL
YOUNG! This is my very first attempt at 'coding' a complete song. I think I
got most of
these right but that F7th up there is suspect. If you've got a better idea
let me or
someone else know, otherwise I think this is a pretty close interpretation
of the song.
Listen to the original for tempo and timing (not for timbre as it is very
synthy).
