Chorus:
G Gmaj7 C I let time go lightly when I'm here with you Am D C G C I let time go lightly when the day is through G Gmaj7 C I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do Am D C G I let time go lightly with you

G Gmaj7 C I let time go lightly when I'm here with you Am D C G C I let time go lightly when the day is through G Gmaj7 C I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do Am D C G I let time go lightly with you

Chorus:
G Gmaj7 C I let time go lightly when I'm here with you Am D C G C I let time go lightly when the day is through G Gmaj7 C I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do Am D C G I let time go lightly with you C D C Yes I let time go lightly with you Am D/F# G and a fire and a friend or two Am C D/F# G With you and a fire and a friend or two C G A friend or two, and you
