[Verse]
G#m As I run F#through this life
G#m Sometimes it breaks my F#heart
G#m Seein' old peopleF# goin' downtown
G#mStumblin' their way through the F#dark
G#mAnd the liF#ttle babies cry
G#mFor their mothers' warmtF#h
G#mSometimes I feel so helpF#less
G#mI don't know where to stF#art
[Chorus]
And the Eface of the nation
Keeps F#changin' and changin'
The Eface of the nation
I don't F#recognize it no more
The face of the G#mnation E F#
The face of the G#mnation E F#

G#mSo many loF#nely people
G#mDamn those broken dreamsF#
G#mOh yes it F#could be better
G#mYou can say that about aF#nything
G#mSome got iF#t worse than me
G#mSome got it worse than yF#ou
G#mYou see thF#e people starvin' underneath the tree
G#mAnd you wonder what happF#ened to the golden rule
[Chorus]
And the Eface of the nation
Keeps F#changin' and changin'
The Eface of the nation
I don't F#recognize it no more
The face of the G#mnation E F#
The face of the G#mnation E F#

G#mYou know babe I'm gonna F#keep on tryin'
G#mTo put things F#right
G#mIf only for meF# and you
G#mCause the devil sleeps tF#onight
[Chorus]
And the Eface of the nation
Keeps F#changin' and changin'
The Eface of the nation
I don't F#recognize it no more
The face of the G#mnation E F#
The face of the G#mnation E F#
And the Eface of the nation
Keeps F#changin' and changin'
The Eface of the nation
I don't F#recognize it no more
The face of the G#mnation E F#
The face of the G#mnation E F#
