I said I played this song
 So many times before
 That the melody keeps repeatin'
 Growin' new ideas
 Flowing chords and notes
 Like a mountain river bleedin'
 Well I said, as I look back
 On all the thoughts I've had
 They reflect just what I'm learnin'
 Yes, you know that the hardest part
 Yes, I said, is to stay on top
 On top of the world forever, Johnny
 Oh yeah, oh yeah
 
 Well you say you're there
 But I can see that your eyes are glad
 Well what do you see, can you see
 Can you see what I'm feelin'
 Yes, I've seen your face before
 I said I've seen it everywhere
 Showin' all to me
 With that, I said, revealin'
 Well I said, will it ever change
 Oh yes, Lord, I said
 Will it stay the same
 I'd surely like to know
 Before it's over
 Well I said I played this song
 Yes, I said it won't be long
 Won't be long before I start
 To play it over
 I, oh I, I've seen your face before
 It's never gonna, never gonna change again
 I, oh I, I been in one place too long
 It's never gonna, never gonna change again
