[Chorus]
           Bb                  F              F                       C
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful

[Verse 1]
           Bb                             F
And I'm walking in the sunshine with my head held high
           F                      C
Got my family together, got this big blue sky
           Bb                      F
And I'll go one direction with my radio on
   F                              C
Recieving what I need to know, digesting wisdom
       Bb                         F
I can fly like an eagle from the ridges above
  F                               C
Decend upon the people with the power of my love
           Bb                     F
Cause I believe in truth and I believe in love
         F                                C
And I believe we are protected from the spirits above

[Chorus]
           Bb                  F              F                       C
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful

[Verse 2]
         Bb                           F
And I see a sister walking with her radio on
          F                            C
She got flowers in her hair and she's singing this song
           Bb                            F
I don't know sometimes we're coming and sometimes we're going
     F                                  C
Sometimes we're in the middle of the great unknown
          Bb                          F
Either way respect for momma and her seven cubs
          F                           C
And the staunch preparation for the things to come
         Bb                      F
I will go one direction with my radio on
         F                     C
I'll keep it nice and simple, sending lots of love

[Chorus] (x2)
           Bb                  F              F                       C
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful
           Bb                  F              F                       C
Comin' home (?) please don't change a thing, don't change a thing at all
While I'm gone, please don't change a thing, you know you're beautiful
