E	 B/D#	   C#m7 
I'm gonna make a change, 
    B         A9 
for once im my life 
           E         B/D# 
It's gonna feel real good, 
      C#m7 
gonna make a diference 
B               A9 
Gonna make it right... 
      E		  B/D# 
As I, turn up the collar on 
C#m           B 
my favorite winter coat 
 A9 
This wind is blowing my mind 
	    E	       B/D# 
I see the kids in the streets, 
C#m 
with not enought to eat 
   B	    A9 
Who am I    to be blind? 

Pretending not to see their needs 

F#m     	   G#m 
A summer disregard, 
		   A9 
a broken bottle top 
	          G#m 
And a one man soul 
F#m			       G#m 
They follow each other on the wind ya' know 
	      A9	      A/B 
'Cause they got nowhere to go 

That's why I want you to know 

Chorus 

E	F#m            G#m       A/B 
I'm starting with the man in the mirror 
E	F#m        G#m       A/B 
I'm asking him to change his ways 
E      F#m                A	     Bb° 
And no message could have been any clearer 
B7 
If you wanna make the world a better place 

Take a look at yourself, and then make a change 
E	B/D#	C#m	B    A9 
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah) 

E	    B/D#       C#m      B 
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love 
A9 
It's time that I realize 
E			B/D#	  C#m 
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan 
B	     A9 
Could it be really me pretending that they're not alone? 
F#m		   	G#m 
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart 
A9		  G#m 
And a washed-out dream 
F#m					G#m 
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see 
	    A9 
'Cause they got no place to be 
A/B 
That's why I'm starting with me
