Intro: F(for two measures) Dm G
FCome gather Dmaround people Fwhere ever Fyou roam
Fand admit that Dmthe waters Faround you Ghave grown
Fand except Dmthat too soon Fyou'll be the Fdrenched to the bone
Fand your time Dmto you is Gworth saving
Gand you better G7start swimming For you will Gsink like a stone
Ffor the times Fthey are Ga chanFging
Fcome writers Dmand critics Fwho prophesy Fwith your pen
Fand keep your Dmeyes wide Fwith the chance Gwon't come again
Fand don't Dmspeak too soon Ffor the wheels Fstill in spin
Fthere's no Dmtelling who Gthat is naming
Gfor the G7loser now Fwill be Glater to win
Ffor the times Fthey are Ga chanFging
FCome senators Dmcongressman Fplease head Fthe hall
Fdon't stand Dmin the doorway Fdon't lock Gup the hall
Ffor he Dmgets hurt Ffor he who Fhas stalled
FThere's a battle Dmoutside and Git's raging
Git will soon G7shake your windows Fand rattle Gyour walls
Ffor the times Fthey are Ga chanFging
FCome mothers Dmand fathers Fthroughout Fthe land
Fand don't Dmcriticize Fwhat you Gcan't understand
Fyour sons and Dmyour daughters Fbeyond Fyour command
Fthe old road Dmis rapidly Gaging
Gplease get out G7a new one Fand can't Glend your hand
Ffor the times Fthey are Ga chanFging
FThe line Dmis drawn Fthe curse Fis cast
Fthe slow Dmone now Fwill later Gbe fast
Fas the Dmpresent now Fwill later Fbe past
Fand the order Dmis rapidly Gfading
Gas the first G7one now Fwill later Gbe last
Ffor the times Fthey are Ga chanFging
