[A] I like it when we [D] sing and dance to
[C#m7] The happy [D] crowd
[A] Show pictures to our [D] friends and our neighbours
[C#m] They look so [G/A] proud

[F#m] Tell them that you’re out of your [Gmaj7] mind
I [A6] think you’re like that most of the [Gmaj7] time
I’ll [F#m] put your friendship on the [Gmaj7] line
Then I [A6] tell them things will be [D] fine

CHORUS

I was [Amaj7] hoping you would change your [D6] mind [D/E]
I was [Amaj7] hoping you would change your [D6] mind [D/E]

VERSE 2

[A] Talk to the [D] good friends you work with
[C#m7] You’ve been there so [Bm7] long
[A] You haven’t been [D] seen in a long time
[C#m] Was anything [G/A] wrong?

I [F#m] told them you were losing [Gmaj7] touch
I [A6] told them not to worry too [Gmaj7] much
[F#m] Give the job to someone [Gmaj7] else
You know you’ve [A6] got to think about your [D] self
