E G#m C#m B A
I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life
E G#m C#m
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference
B A
Gonna make it right
E G#m C#m B
As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
A
This wind is blowin' my mind
E G#m C#m
I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat
B A
Who am I, to be blind? Pretending not to see their needs
F#m G#m
A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top
A G#m
And a one man's soul
F#m G#m
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
A B
'Cause they got nowhere to go
B
That's why I want you to know
E G#m A B
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
E G#m A B
I'm asking him to change his ways
E G#m A Bb
And no message could have been any clearer
B
If you wanna make the world a better place
E G#m C#m B A
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
E G#m C#m B
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
A
It's time that I realize
E G#m C#m B
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
A
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
F#m G#m
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
A G#m
And a washed-out dream
F#m G#m
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see
A B
Cause they got no where to be
E
That's why I'm starting with me
E G#m A B
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
E G#m A B
I'm asking him to change his ways
E G#m A Bb
And no message could have been any clearer
B
If you wanna make the world a better place
E
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
