[G]Me[Gsus]anings [G]will [F]change[Em] as you learn to [D]grow
And all that is [Am]known[C] becomes suddenly [D]old.
And that which you [Am]have[C] to last you til the [D]end
Turns out to []be j[]ust passing []friend.[-bass] [] [/-bass]
And would you spend your life away
Collecting great treasures so you d be safe some day
And when you re old and when you re gray
Meanings will change, life s just that way.
When you re finally sure you think you understand
All about living and life s demands
Someone will touch you, and you ll see again
Meanings will change, you just can t win.

So don tca worry bout your money, don tcha worry about fame
It s all a conspiracy, all part of the game
Yet you re the conspirator, the silent enemy
And you re the victim . . . you ll finally see.
After you get to where you have to be
After you own everything you see
And when meanings don t change about the things you knew
You may as well die, it s all over for you.
And if you re wise and if you know
What few things are real, which never grow old
Then take them now and make you a start
With a simple life, and a simple heart.
