The song is basically just C Dm Am7 C F through out the whole song.
It's pretty simple


C                                 Dm
  And you can clean around the wound
                       Am7
  but if you want it to heal
         C       F
  it just takes time

C                          Dm
  and you can go up to the moon
                              Am7
  but if you want something to change
            C          F
  you gotta change your life
                C    Dm
  and take your time

                Am7   C F
  it just takes time
                C    Dm
  it just takes time
                Am7
  it just takes time
          C         F
  hard work and your time

C                            Dm
  and the sun will leave your room
                     Am7
 and leave you to the night
        C   F
 and that's alright

C                          Dm
  because before the morning comes
                   Am7
  there's a certain calm
            C      F
  and then there's light

                C    Dm
  it just takes time
                Am7
  it just takes time
            C           F
  a little trust and your time
                     C     Dm
  you can change your life
                Am7
  it just takes time
             C           F
  a little trust and your time

C                     Dm
  and i can sit and talk
                        Am7
  'couse i was just like you
           C         F
  so arrogant and brave
                   C
  impetuous and blue
                  Dm
  but trust me as a friend
                          Am7
  and i'll do all that i can do
             C          F
  and i'd do anything for you
                               C    Dm
  because i want to see you through

                 Am7
  it just takes time
        C            F
  hard work and your time
                       C   Dm
  you can change your life
                 Am7
  it just takes time
             C             F
  a little trust and your time
                           C
  a little trust and your time
                           Dm
  a little trust and your time
                 Am7
  it just takes time
         C      F
  it just takes time
                      C
  hard work and your time
