Am 
Will you look at me? Take a good look at me  
C                G                       
And tell me who it is that I am. 
Am 
This old mirror it is broken, 
C                         G 
There's too much drift in the dam. 


G                                  C                 Am 
It's not the world that's spinning its me 
G                                             C                         Am 
I go from nowhere to nowhere searching for the key. 
C                       G      F             Am      
There's nothing new under the sun, 
C                G                  F           Am        
All that will happen has already begun. 


Am        C       G                Am 
Will you savor this in your mind, 
Am       C                    Gm            Am 
This old feeling when you're left behind? 
Am        C          G          Am 
Will you hold to this as true 
Am             C           G           Am 
Or will you dance to another tune? 


Am    
I was watching for a long time 
C              G 
As people crossed the street. 
Am  
Some heavy sadness weighed upon me 
C               G 
As I sat silent in the car seat. 


G                                    C                       Am 
Shadows with that same look upon their faces, 
G                                C            Am 
A child will die that nobody embraces, 
C                       G             F                         Am 
Everything gets tiresome, everything grows old, 
C                        G                        F                    Am 
With each secret revealed, there's another to be told. 

Am        C       G                Am 
Will you savor this in your mind, 
Am        C                  G               Am 
This old feeling when you're left behind? 
Am        C          G         Am 
Will you hold to this as true 
Am             C            G           Am 
Or will you dance to another tune? 


Am 
Will you look at me? Take a good look at me  
       C                G 
And tell me who it is that I am.
