[Verse 1]
     G             Em         C        G
Come gather 'round people wherever you roam
                   Am      C              D
And admit that the waters around you have grown
      G            Em             C               G
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
                Am           D
If your time to you is worth savin'
                      Cadd9              Em7         D
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,
        G           C     D    G
For the times, they are a changin'

[Verse 2]
     G           Em                C              G
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen
                   Am              C           D
And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
    G               Em           C                G
And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin
                       Am            D
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
              Cadd9       Em7      D
For the loser now will be later to win
        G          C     D    G
For the times they are a-changin'

Come senators, congressmen please heed the call
                   Am             C            D
Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall
    G            Em           C          G
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
                    Am            D
There's a battle outside and it's raging
                      Cadd9       Em7         D
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
        G          C     D    G
For the times they are a-changin'

[Verse 4]
     G           Em      C              G
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
               Am            C          D
And don't criticize what you can't understand
     G             Em              C            G
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
                 Am      D
Your old road is rapidly aging
                      Cadd9          Em7          D
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
        G          C     D    G
For the times they are a-changin'

[Verse 5]
    G          Em        C           G
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
             Am       C        D
The slow one now will later be fast
       G       Em       C        G
As the present now will later be past
             Am      D
The order is rapidly fading
                  Cadd9    Em7      D
And the first one now will later be last
        G          C     D    G
For the times they are a-changin'
