Bob Dylan — The Times They Are A Changin’

Verse 1:
      G             Em        C         G 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  G
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
        G       Am           D
If your time to you is worth savin'
         D            D7                  D6          D
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,
        G           C     D G G G G
For the times they are a-changin'

Verse 2:
       G          Em                C              G G
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen
     G              Am              C           D
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
     G               Em           C                G 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'
         D       D7       D6       D
For the loser now will be later to win
        G           C     D G G G G
For the times they are a-changin'

Verse 3:
      G         Em           C              G  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  G
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
          G         Am            D
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
         D             D7         D6          D
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
        G           C     D G G G G
For the times they are a-changin'

Verse 4:
      G           Em            C        G  G
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
     G          Am            C           D
And don't criticize what you can't understand
      G             Em              C            G G
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
     G           Am      D
Your old road is rapidly agin'
         D             D7            D6           D
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
        G           C     D G G G G
For the times they are a-changin'

Verse 5:
     G          Em         C          G G
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
      G       Am       C        D
The slow one now will later be fast
         G     Em        C        G  G
As the present now will later be past
    G        Am       D
The order is rapidly fadin'
         D         D7       D6       D
And the first one now will later be last
        G           C     D G G G G
For the times they are a-changin'
