Judy Collins - The times they are a-changin

Come gather 'round ^Ampeople where ^Fever you ^Croam And admit that the ^Dmwaters arou^Fnd you have ^Ggrown And ac^Ccept it that ^Amsoon you'll be ^Fdrenched to the ^Cbone If your time to ^Dmyou is worth ^Gsavin' Then you better start ^G7swimmin' or you'll ^Csink like a s^Gtone For the ^Ctimes ^Fthey are a' ^Gchang^Cin'

Come writers and ^Amcritics who ^Fprophecies with your ^Cpen And keep your eyes ^Dmwide the chance ^Fwon't come a^Ggain And ^Cdon't speak too ^Amsoon for the ^Fwheel's still in ^Cspin And there's no tellin' ^Dmwho that it's ^Gnamin' For the loser ^G7now will be ^Clater to ^Gwin For the ^Ctimes ^Fthey are a' ^Gchang^Cin'

Come senators, ^Amcongressmen, ^Fplease heed the ^Ccall Don't stand in the ^Dmdoorway don't ^Fblock up the ^Ghall For ^Che that gets ^Amhurt will be ^Fhe who has ^Cstalled There's a battle ^Dmoutside and it's ^Gragin' It'll soon shake your ^G7windows and ^Crattle your ^Gwalls For the ^Ctimes ^Fthey are a' ^Gchang^Cin'

Come mothers and ^Amfathers ^Fthroughout the ^Cland And don't criti^Dmcize what you ^Fcan't under^Gstand Your ^Csons and your ^Amdaughters are be^Fyond your com^Cmand Your old road is ^Dmrapidly ^Gagin' Please get out of the ^G7new one if you ^Ccan't lend your ^Ghand For the ^Ctimes ^Fthey are a' ^Gchang^Cin'

The line it is ^Amdrawn the ^Fcurse it is ^Ccast The slow one ^Dmnow will ^Flater be ^Gfast As the ^Cpresent ^Amnow will ^Flater be ^Cpast The order is ^Dmrapidly ^Gfadin' And the first one ^G7now will ^Clater be ^Glast For the ^Ctimes ^Fthey are a' ^Gchang^Cin'
