Chords

[Intro] G [Verse 1]
      G             Em         D       G
Come gather 'round people wherever you roam

      G                                    D
And admit that the waters around you have grown

      G          Em             D              G
And accept that soon you'll be drenched to the bone

          G       G/E          D
If your time to you is worth savin'

          D
Then you better start swimmin'

          D
Or you'll sink like a stone

          G     C         D   G
For the times they are a-changin'
[Verse 2]
      G            Em               D             G
Come writers and critics who prophecise with your pen

     G             G/E                          D
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again

     G               Em            D               G
And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin

            G          G/E             D
And there's no tellin' now where it's namin'

          D
For the loser now will be later to win

         G     C          D   G
For the times they are a-changin'
[Verse 3]
      G           Em             D        G
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land

     G         G/E             D
And don't criticize what you don't understand

      G               Em            D             G
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command

      G          G/E      D
Your old road is rapidly agein'

        D
So get out of the new one

       D
If you can lend a hand

         G     Em         D   G
For the times they are a-changin'
[Verse 4]
     G          Em         D           G
The line it is drawn, the curse it is cast

    G        G/E        D
The slow one now will later be last

G        Em               D      G
As the present now will later be past

     G       G/E       D
The order is rapidly fadin'

          D
And the first one now will later be last

          G    C          D   G
For the times they are a-changin'
