_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ There was a folk singer in Frank's village _ [F#] called Phil _ Oaks.
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ He was one of the biggest influences on me _ _ [Bm] and many other [B] young _ up and coming, trying
to [N] get a job kind of guys _ _ and girls.
As _ _ a _ [D] matter of fact, _ _
[G#] there was a great movie recently as far as success goes made.
[N] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ But Phil wasn't in it. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] Jim and Gene were [D#] in that. _ _ _
[A] _ Jim and Gene were [G] two people that I [E] met. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#] _ _ _ [Am] Gene told [G] me all about Phil. _ _ _ _
They used to do Phil Oaks songs. _ _ _
[G#] I knew who he was, but I didn't know _ _ anybody that loved him as much as I did.
[G] _ _ So they showed me all the songs he did.
_ And he sang songs in them.
_ _ _ Law folk songs.
_ _ _ They all [A] had these great words.
He was just like this walking poet. _ _
Everything that [G] he said was like poetry.
There was nothing in [G#] it.
_ His singing was kind of like, you know, _ _ [D#] _ I've heard people describe [G] my singing as weird.
[N] _ _
_ _ His singing was _ _
_ _ [G#m] described as weird. _ _
[C] _ _ I felt good about that later.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] He was a great [E] poet. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] He wore a [G#m] gold lame suit at Carnegie [A] Hall [A#] and got food.
He wanted to give everybody their money back.
[G#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ He was changing.

_ _ By [Am] _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
[B] my side, _ [G#m] as _
[E] close as [F#m] the air _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [B] Sharing a [B] memory, _ [G#m] gray _ _ _
[E] And wander [C#m] in [F#m] my words
_ _ _ [B] Dream _ about [E] the pictures that I [F#m] play _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[E] Of _ changes, _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ green [B] leaves of summer
_ _ [E] Turn to red, _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ to brown [B] and to yellow
_ [G#m] They fade, _ _
[C#m] and then they have [F#m] to _ die
_ _ [B] Trapped within _
[E] _ a circle [F#m] time parade
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[E] A change, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ scenes [B] of my young years
_ [E] Were worn by [F#m] mine _ _ _
[A] _ _ Visions [B] of _ shadows that [G#m] _ shine _
[C#m] Till one day I [F#m] _ returned
_ And [B] _ found that they [E] were victims of
[F#m] _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ A swirl [B] spinning man
_ _ [E] That _ drifts in the [F#m] dark _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ Swinging through _ all of [G#m] _ haze _
_ [C#m] A race around the [F#m] _
stars
_ [B] A journey through [E] the _ universe
[F#m] In _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ changes, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ moments [B] of magic
_ _ [E] Will glow in the [F#m] night _ _ _
_ [A] _ And all fears [B] of the forest _ are [G#m] gone _ _
But [C#m] then the morning [F#m] _
breaks
_ _ [B] We're swept away [E] by golden _ drops _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] Changes, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
ashes [B] will pile _ _
To a _ strange [F#m] note _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ As _ fires [B] be _ _ _ _ [G#m] sunburned cold
_ _ _ [C#m] Like petals _ in the wind
_ _ [B] We're _ puppets to [E] the silver strings [F#m] of _ songs _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
Your _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ tears [B] will be treated
_ [E] To _ showers [F#m] somewhere else
_ _ _ [A] _
One last cup [B] of wine _ [G#m] we'll pour
_ _ [C#m] And I'll kiss you one more time _ _
[B] And leave you on [E] the rolling river [F#m] shore
_ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ [E] Of _ changes _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ I'm _
[E] _ almost out of [F#m] here _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ Sharing [B] a memory [G#m] of grey
_ _ [C#m] And wandering _ [F#m] my words
_ _ _ [B] Dream about [E] the pictures that I [F#m] frame
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ Of [E] changes _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
