THE MORE THINGS CHANGE (Mary-Chapin Carpenter)
----------------------------------------------
[Capo 3]
[Each chord is one measure]
[Actually, the Em`s almost sound like E5`s and the A`s in the verse
sound like A5`s...]

Em Em Em Em
[intro]

Em Em
Well I think of you sometimes at night
Em Em
And sometimes it`s still the same
Em Em B7 B7
The way that it was when I was the keeper of your flame
Em Em
We all have our ghosts, we all have our doubts
A G
I`m no different with you or without
Em B7 Em Em
But one thing`s certain: only the names have changed

And I think of you sometimes baby
When an old friend gives a call
And to hear us talk you`d think I felt nothing at all
`Cause nothing remains that used to be yours
We all have our way of closing the door
But it takes some time to get up when you fall

A G
But I`m the same sweet girl you couldn`t get enough of
Em A
Way back when you pledged your love
Em Em B7 B7
And you`d drive to find me through the pouring rain
A G
Now I hear all about your running around
Em A
Man you`re a legend all over town
Em B7 Em Em
The more things change, the more they remain the same

[Guitar solo, same chords as verse]

Sometimes I wonder if you`ve ever heard
The sound of a broken heart
It ain`t real pretty, it ain`t the thing the nice folks talk about
And the hardest thing you`ll ever have to do
Is face the one who`s done it to you
His eye`s like an angel`s, they`re so devout

But I`m the same sweet girl you couldn`t get enough of
Way back when you pledged your love
And you`d drive to find me through the pouring rain
Now I hear all about your running around
Man you`re a legend all over town
The more things change, the more they remain the same

Now I hear all about your running around
Man you`re a legend all over town
The more things change, the more they remain the same
