Judy Collins - The Times They Are A-Changin'
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
Am F C
Come gather 'round people where ever you roam
Dm F G
And admit that the waters around you have grown
C Am F C
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
Dm G
If your time to you is worth savin'
G7 C G
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
C F G C
For the times they are a' changin'
[Verse 2]
Am F C
Come writers and critics who prophecies with your pen
Dm F G
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
C Am F C
And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin
Dm G
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
G7 C G
For the loser now will be later to win
C F G C
For the times they are a' changin'
[Verse 3]
Am F C
Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
Dm F G
Don't stand in the doorway don't block up the hall
C Am F C
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
Dm G
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
G7 C G
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
C F G C
For the times they are a' changin'
[Verse 4]
Am F C
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
Dm F G
And don't criticize what you can't understand
C Am F C
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Dm G
Your old road is rapidly agin'
G7 C G
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
C F G C
For the times they are a' changin'
[Verse 5]
Am F C
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
Dm F G
The slow one now will later be fast
C Am F C
As the present now will later be past
Dm G
The order is rapidly fadin'
G7 C G
And the first one now will later be last
C F G C
For the times they are a' changin'
