[Verse 1]

     G             Em         C  
Come gather 'round people 
      G
wherever you roam
                   Am           
And admit that our country don't 
 C             D
feel like our home
    G                   Em        
And that silence speaks louder 
  C            G
than those who condone
              Am           D
If a tweet to you is worth favin'
                  Cadd9      
Then lift up your voices and put 
Em7           D
down your phones
        G           C     D   G
For the times, they are a-changin'

[Verse 2]
     G         Em      C          
Come women and men who hashtag "Me 
 G
Too"
                      Am          
And believe me when I say that we 
C       D
believe you
Continues after the ad
    G           Em      C        
For weak is the man who calls 
         G
truth "fake news"
               Am           
Time’s up, our silence we’re 
 D
breakin'
                       Cadd9      
And even though Mel Gibson was in 
Em7          D
Daddy's Home 2
          G          C     D   G
Well, the times they are a-changin'

[Verse 3]
     G             Em      
Come athletes with platforms 
  C              G
throughout the land
                Am       C        
Who by taking a knee are taking a 
D
stand
    G                Em       C  
And before you shout out that 
            G
they should be banned
          Am            D
Listen to what they are sayin'
                     Cadd9    
Perhaps they'd stand up if you 
 Em7              D
reached out your hand
          G          C     D   G
Well, the times they are a-changin'

[Verse 4]
     G            Em          C  
Come journalists, writers who 
        G
report the facts
                  Am          C   
And brandish your pen to fend off 
      D
his attacks
     G            Em       C     
Look past what he says and look 
         G
at how he acts
             Am      D
The fire and fury is ragin'
                  Cadd9          
For his words can hurt, but your 
Em7             D
words can fight back
         G           C    
New York Times, they aren't 
    D  G
a-failin'

[Verse 5]
     G           Em         C    
Come leaders who bully like 
    G
Internet trolls
                     Am         
We'll curse you with four-letter 
 C                 D
words 'love' and 'hope'
    G          Em        C       
For we will go high even when you
    G
 go low
             Am   D
The order is re-arrangin'
                 Cadd9      Em7   
For you have the power, but we 
      D
have the vote
    G          C     D   G
The times they are a-changin'
