Verse:
C majorC       G/BG/B     A minorAm      G+G
You ceased to mow the lawn ten years ago
     FF     C majorC      FF      G+G
You just wanted to see how your garden would grow
   A minorAm      G+G         C majorC       FF
You abandoned the pruning shears and welcomed each weed
         C majorC           G+G
You permitted the soil to select its own seed

Verse:
    C majorC     G/BG/B    A minorAm        G+G
But it would be unfair to assume you don't care
    FF      C majorC     FF      G+G
For you pay great attention to all that goes there
    A minorAm    G+G      C majorC     FF
But you simply abstain from a plan or design
             C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
     FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time

Instrumental:
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G FF C majorC FF G+G

Verse:
    C majorC     G/BG/B      A minorAm        G+G
And you follow the thread in the book that you've read
   FF       C majorC      FF        G+G
Or in something that someone you heard somewhere said
     A minorAm     G+G      C majorC    FF
You say, "It's all connected, it's all intertwined
            C majorC    G+G      C majorC
If you let it all hang out and take its own time
    FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC
If you let it all hang out and take its own time"

Instrumental:
C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G FF C majorC FF G+G
C majorC G+G Eb MajorEb A minorAm AbAb

Verse:
     C majorC       G/BG/B    A minorAm     G+G
Well, you don't move too fast, you make it all last
   FF      C majorC    FF      G+G
You encounter each moment before it is past
    A minorAm      G+G      C majorC      FF
And you say, "Walking slow in this world is no crime"
             C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
     FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
     FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
     FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC   G+G FF
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
  G+G      FF
And take its own time

Outro:
C majorC FF G+G C majorC G+G FF C majorC
     FF        C majorC    G+G      C majorC
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
