D                 F#m               C
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a papercup
       Em7                         A
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
D                F#m               C
Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind
    G           Gm          D
possessing and caressing me

Chorus:
A7
Nothing’s gonna change my world
 G                         D
Nothing’s gonna change my world
A7
Nothing’s gonna change my world
 G                         D
Nothing’s gonna change my world

Images of broken light
which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like the restless wind inside a letterbox
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe

A7
Nothing’s gonna change my world
 G                         D
Nothing’s gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter, shades of life
Are ringing through my open ears
Inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love,
which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on and on across the universe

Chorus:
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world

Nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing's going to
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing's going to
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Hey, nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing going to change it
Nothing going to change it
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Nothing's going to change my world
