C majorC              E-F: G+G
  Listen easy,         you can hear God calling
C majorC         FF               G+G       FF  G+G
  Walking barefoot by the stream
C majorC              E-F: G+G
  Come on to me,       your hair's softly falling
C majorC       FF            G+G
  On my face as in a dream
        FF                C majorC
And the time will be our time
        FF                  C majorC       Csus4Csus4 C majorC
And the grass won't pay no mind

C majorC              E-F: G+G
  Saying nothing,       lying where the sun is
C majorC         FF             G+G
   Baking down upon our sides
C majorC                 E-F: G+G
  My lips touch you,       with their soft wet kisses
C majorC            FF           G+G
  Your hands gentle in reply
        FF                C majorC
And the time will be our time
        FF                  C majorC          G+G
And the grass won't pay no mind

C majorC               FF
Child, touch my soul with your cries
        G+G                          C majorC
And the music will know what we've found
C majorC         FF
I, hear a hundred good-byes
      C majorC                   DmDm
But today I hear only one sound
    C majorC                      DmDm
The moment we're living is now
DmDm break:
Now now now now now now now

C majorC                    E-F: G+G
    Young bird flying,       and a soft wind blowing
C majorC           FF               G+G
  Cools the sweat inside my palms
C majorC               E-F: G+G
   Close my eyes,       hear the flowers growing
C majorC            FF              G+G
  As you lay sleeping in my arms
        FF                C majorC
And the time will be our time
        FF                  C majorC
And the grass won't pay no mind
       FF                  C majorC
No the grass won't pay no mind
