Lyrics
Changing With The Sky
D A D G D A D G
Thank the Lord and Texaco that my car keeps tickin’ on.
I’ve worn my tires and my angels out, traveling dawn to dawn.
Each town has their donut shop. They gossip and catch the news.
They wear this scruffy familiar place like a pair of well-worn shoes.
Bm G D A
But I’m not staying here. I hear a voice so clear. So down the road I fly.
Bm G D A-Asus4
My dreaming never ends. My world around the bend is changing with the sky.
Vamp
D G D G D G A
Changing with the sky. Changing with the sky. Changing with the sky.
D
Changing with the sky.
I keep turning my radio dial. Even I can not get bored.
Flash backs to the Beach Boys, ads for cell phones and baseball scores.
Be a model, be a campaign supporter, be the 25th caller to win.
Drive a new Toyota, try our new soda, it will make you slim.
What I’m not falling for is consumer rigor mortis. I laugh until I cry.
My wheels have left the ground. My mood is heaven bound and changing with the sky.
Vamp
From time to time I fall from Grace. My car needs some repairs.
So I work the counter jobs. I shave and comb my hair.
I sigh and wait for my luck to turn like the blue that melts the clouds.
I walk out to the graveyard at night so I can sing out loud.
But I’m not giving up. I have an empty cup, but hope rains from on high.
My fortune wears high heels. She slaps and then she peels.
She’s changing with the sky.
Vamp.
