C

[Verse 1]
                   Am           F        C
Come gather 'round people where ever you roam
                   Dm         F           G
And admit that the waters around you have grown
      C            Am             F               C
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
                Dm           G
If your time to you is worth savin'
                      G7                 C            G
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
        C     F           G    C
For the times they are a' changin'


[Verse 2]
                 Am          F                    C
Come writers and critics who prophecies with your pen
                   Dm              F           G
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
    C               Am           F                C
And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin
                       Dm            G
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
              G7          C        G
For the loser now will be later to win
        C     F           G    C
For the times they are a' changin'


[Verse 3]
               Am           F               C
Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
                   Dm            F            G
Don't stand in the doorway don't block up the hall
    C            Am           F          C
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
                 Dm               G
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
                      G7          C           G
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
        C     F           G    C
For the times they are a' changin'


[Verse 4]
                 Am      F              C
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
               Dm            F          G
And don't criticize what you can't understand
     C             Am              F            C
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
                 Dm      G
Your old road is rapidly agin'
                      G7             C               G
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
        C     F           G    C
For the times they are a' changin'


[Verse 5]
               Am        F           C
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
             Dm       F        G
The slow one now will later be fast
       C       Am       F        C
As the present now will later be past
             Dm      G
The order is rapidly fadin'
                  G7       C        G
And the first one now will later be last
        C     F           G    C
For the times they are a' changin'
