Em Em Em Em Em Em Em
[Verse 1]
EmI was born on a Emriver of maize
Emcrops grew strong and the Emcattle grazed
and I Amwonder    Amif things have EmchangedEm  
The Emrivers flowed and the Emvalleys were green
Emkids spent their summers in the Emapple trees
and I Amwonder,   Amoh my how I Emwonder,   Em     B7  B7if things have EmchangedEm  
[Verse 2]
The Emfamine hit us and the Emwells dried up
when Emthere's no water boy you're Emstraight out of luck
and I Amwonder    Amif things have EmchangedEm  
EmCrops perished there's Emnothing to pick
The Emcattle are dead and the Emkids are all sick
and I Amwonder,   Amoh my how I Emwonder,   Em     B7  B7if things have EmchangedEm  
[Pre-Chorus]
AmWinter's on us and the Amrust sets in
Emso many men give Emin to the drink
AmThey take the farm and they Amtake the land
the B7bank no longer cares about them B7ten year plans
and I Amwonder,   Amoh my how I Emwonder,   Em     B7  B7if things have EmchangedEm  
[Chorus]
GPayments past due and the Gbanks have got the right to say Dno sirD  
Amno more time Amto make it all right for EmyouEm  
But Gnothing ever Gchanges and the Dbreaks they don't Dcome
You can Amholler and pray Amtill the day is DdoneD  
and I Amwonder,   Amoh my how I Emwonder,   Em     B7  B7if things have EmchangedEm  
[Verse 3]
EmEverybody knows that Emnothings for free
the Emtoll man came and took it Emall from me
and I Amwonder    Amif things have EmchangedEm  
They Emtake your money leave you Emhomeless and cold
