James Taylor 1975

Things may always stay the way they are [ Dmaj7 E11 Amaj7 ]
Still my head looks for a change from time to time [ Dmaj7 E11 Amaj7
A#dim]
I don't really need to look that far [ Bm7 Cdim C#m7 F#7sus F#7 ]
Turn on the music, strike up the music [ E11 ]
Let the music change my mind [ E11 Amaj7 A ]

Now don't I dig the big time rock-and-roll, [ Dmaj7 E11 Amaj7 ]
To sit in the darkness and be somebody else; [ Dmaj7 E11 Amaj7 A#dim]
A time which, after all, is under control. [ Bm7 Cdim C#m7 F#7sus F#7 ]
Crank out the music, give me music, [ E11 ]
Let the music fill the air. [ E11 Amaj7 A ]

My dear friend, your head's been sinking like a stone [ Dm7 G11 Cmaj7 ]
You must try thinking like a cloud sometime [ Em7 A11 Dmaj7 ]
Just leave a happy side out loud sometime [ F#m7 B11 Emaj7 ]
There's a symphony inside you [ G11 ]
There's a thousand things for you to do [ E11 Amaj7 ]
So come on@

Let a hush fall on the movie crowd; [ Dmaj7 E11 Amaj7 ]
Boy turns to girl and says, "I love you so." (Well, you know) [ Dmaj7 E11
Amaj7 A#dim]
What I hear in here is violins. [ Bm7 Cdim C#m7 F#7sus F#7 ]
Give me music, Mister Music, [ E11 ]
Let the music be there too [ E11 Amaj7 Amaj7 ]

Let the music be there too [ E11 Amaj7 Amaj7 ]
I'll never know what to do [ Amaj7 C#m7 F#7 ]
unless you let the music be there too [ Bm7 E11 ]
La la la la la la la la la [ Amaj7 C#m7 F#7 Bm7 E11 ]
Let it be there too. [ E11 Amaj7 ]
