G
Time's just a passin'
Everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Em D
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
G
And when it gets real bad
Oh, just raise your glass
Em D
We might as well laugh before we cry
G D/F# Em
Oh these crazy times
[Verse]
C G
All the stores are closing early
Em C D
And half the factories shut down
Em C G
People are sleeping in the allies
Bm D
'Cause we could only bail a couple out
Em C G
Talking heads on the TV screen
Em C D
They try to tell us what to do
Em C G D
How do you separate the truth from the fake
Bm D
'Cause man I ain't got a clue
[Chorus]
G
Time's just a passin'
Everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Em D
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
G
And when it gets real bad
Oh, just raise your glass
Em D
We might as well laugh before we cry
G D/F# Em
Oh these crazy times
[Verse]
C G
I close my eyes and remember
Em C D
The ones we lost last spring
Em C G D
Rising profits mix with goodness
Bm D
Like that oil in the sea
[Chorus]
G
Time's just a passin'
Everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Em D
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
G
And when it gets real bad
Oh, just raise your glass
Em D
We might as well laugh before we cry
G D/F#
Oh these crazy times
[Bridge]
Am Em
I remember when
G D
But forget how long it's been
Am Em D
Since we all lived in peace
Am Em
But you can't just sit and grieve
G D
The growing gap between
Am Em D
What we know and believe, I believe
[Chorus]
G
Time's just a passin'
Everyone's fine if you ask 'em
Em D
Like we're pulling a fast one with our smiles
G
And when it gets real bad
Oh, just raise your glass
Em D
We might as well laugh before we cry
G
Oh these crazy times
