D
Deep in the back of my mind is an unrealized sound
       A#                       C                          D
Every feeling I get from the street says it soon could be found
When I hear the cold lies of the pusher I know it exists
         A#                        C                          D
It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids emphasized with their fists

         F                 C       D# A#
But the high has to rise from the low
         F         C                D#  A#
Like volcanoes explode through the snow
        Gm                      F                     D#maj7  A7
The mosquito's sting brings a dream but the poisons derange Hmm
                 D
The music must change
                     F
For we're chewing a bone

    A               Bm7
We soared like the sparrow hawk
  D             A           D
Flied then we drop like a stone
                       D
Like the tide and the waves
                   F
Growing slowly in range
          A           Bm7        D
Crushing mountains as old as the earth,
        E           D
so the music must change change

Sometimes at night I wake up and my body's like ice
The sound of the running wild stallion,
the noise of the m-mice
And I wondered if then I could hear into all of your dreams
I realize now it was really the sound of your screams

But death always leads into life
Like the street-fighter swallows the knife
Am I so crazy to feel that it's here pre-arranged?
The music must change
It gets higher and higher
Smolderin' like leaves in the sun
Then it bursts into fire
Its rhythm grows strong
It's so new and so strange
Like bells in the clouds,
then again the music must change
Change

D                    G    A
But is this song so different?
D             G     A
Am I doing it all again?
D                 G      A
It may have been done before
D                   G     A
But then music's an open door

Deep in the back of my mind is an unrealized sound
Every feeling I get from the
street says it soon could be found
When I hear the cold lies of the pusher I know it exists
It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids
emphasized with their fists

But the high has to rise from the low
Like volcanoes explode through the snow
The mosquito's sting brings
a dream but the poisons derange
The music must change
For we're chewing a bone
We soared like the sparrow hawk flied,
then we dropped like a stone
Like the tide and the waves
growing slowly in range
Crushing mountains as old as the earth,
the music must change
