The Times They Are A-Changin'
Bob Dylan / Bob Dylan: the Times, they are a a-Changin' (1964)
| G | Em | C | G |
Come | gather 'round | people wher | ever you | roam |
| G | Am | C | D |
And ad | mit that the | waters a | round you have | grown! |
| G | Em | C | G |
And ac | cept it that | soon you'll be | drenched to the | bone |
| Em | Am | D |
If your | time to | you is worth | savin'! |
| D | D7 | Gmaj7 | D |
Then you | better start | swimmin' or you'll | sink like a | stone |
| G | C | D | G |
For the | times, they are a | cha- | an- | gin'! |
Come writers and critics who prophecise with your pen | |
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again! | |
And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin | |
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'! | |
For the loser now will be later to win | |
For the times they are a-changin'! | |
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land - And don't criticize what you don't understand! | |
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command - Your old road is rapidly agin'! | |
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand | |
For the times they are a-changin'! | |
Come senators, congressmen please heed the call | |
Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall! | |
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled | |
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'! | |
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls | |
For the times they are a-changin'! | |
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast - The slow one now will later be fast! | |
As the present now will later be past - The order is rapidly fadin'! | |
And the first one now will later be last - For the times they are a-changin'! | |
