   C      G       F      C
   and he told us of his life
   Ami    Dmi     F    G 
   in the land of submarines.

   till we found the sea of green
   and we lived beneath the waves

   now it looks as though they're here to stay,
      Ami  D       F     C

    There will be an answer, let it be
    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

3. And when the night is cloudy,

The Times They Are A-Changin'   (Bob Dylan)
     G             Emi        C        G

   And admit that the waters around you have grown
       G              Emi            C               G
   And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
                   Ami          D
   If your time to you is worth savin'

         G            D                  G           D
R: Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,
           G                 D   G 
   For the times, they are a changin'

2. Come writers and critics who profecies with your pen
   And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
   And don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin
   And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'

R: For the loser now will be later to win
   For the times they are a changin'

3. Come senators, congressmen please heed the call
   Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall
   For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
   There's a battle outside and it's ragin'

R: It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
      For the times they are a changin'

4. Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
   And don't criticize what you don't understand
   Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
   Your old road is rapidly agin'

R: Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
   For the times they are a changin'

5. The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
   The slow one now will later be fast
   As the present now will later be past
   The order is rapidly fadin'

R: And the first one now will later be last
   For the times they are a changin'

   F        G               C               F
R: Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
             C               F                  G
   I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
    F        G               C              F
   Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
           C             F                 G         C
   In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
 
             F        G                    C             F

C                F             C               F                   G
Vanished from my hand, left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping
      F         G              C             F            C         F
   My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet
            C              F                     G
   And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming ... R:
 
2. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
   My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip
   My toes too numb to step, wait only for my bootheels to be wandering
   I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, Into my own parade
   Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it ... R:
 
3. Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
   It's not aimed at anyone, It's just escaping on the run
   And but for the sky there are no fences facing
   And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
   To your tambourine in time, It's just a ragged clown behind
   I wouldn't pay it any mind
   It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing ... R:

4. Take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
   Down the foggy ruins of time, Far past the frozen leaves
   The haunted frightened trees, Out to the windy bench
   Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
   Yes to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
   Silhouetted by the sea, Circled by the circus sands
   With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
   Let me forget about today until tomorrow ... R:
