G Em C G
Come gather 'round, people, wherever you roam
G Am C D
And admit that the waters around you have grown
G Em C G
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone.
G Am D
If your time to you is worth savin',
G D C D
Then you'd better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,
G C D G
For the times, they are a changin?.
G Em C C
Come, writers and critics who prophesy with your pens,
G Am C D
And keep your eyes wide; the chance won?t come again,
G Em C G
And don?t speak too soon, for the wheel?s still in spin
G Am D
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
G C D
For the loser now will be later to win,
G C D G
For the times, they are a changin?.
G Em C G
Come, Senators, Congressmen, please heed the call.
G Am C D
Don?t stand in the doorway, don?t block up the hall,
G Em C G
For he who gets hurt will be he who has stalled.
G Am D
There?s a battle outside and it?s ragin?.
G D
It'll soon shake your windows
G C D
It?ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
G C D G
For the times, they are a-changin'.
G Em C G
Come, mothers, fathers throughout the land,
G Am C G
And don?t criticize what you don?t understand.
G Em G Am
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command.
G Am G
Your old road is rapidly agin?.
G D C D
Please get out of the new one if you can?t lend a hand,
G C D G
For the times, they are a-changin'.
G Em C G
The line it is drawn; the curse, it is cast.
G Am C G
The slow one now will later be fast,
G Em G Am
As the present now will later be past.
G Am G
The order is rapidly fadin?
G D C D
And the first one now will later be last,
G C D G
For the times, they are a-changin'.
