Verse 1:

D                   Bm          G        D
Come gather 'round, people, wherever you roam
                   Em         A
And admit that the waters around you have grown
    D              Bm             G               D
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
                             A
If your time to you is worth saving
         D            F#m                G           A
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
        D                 A        D
For the times, they are a-changin'
Verse 2:

D                Bm          G                    D
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen
                   Em               A
And keep your eyes wide, the chance won't come again
    D               Bm            G                D
And don't speak too soon, for the wheel's still in spin
                                     A
And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
        D     F#m         G        A
For the loser now will be later to win
        D                 A      D
For the times, they are a-changin'


Verse 3:

D              Bm           G               D
Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
                   Em             A
Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall
    D            Bm           G          D
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
                   A
The battle outside ragin'
     D               F#m         G           A
Will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
        D                 A       D
For the times, they are a-changin'


Verse 4:

D                Bm          G        D
Come mothers and fathers all over the land
                Em           A
And don't criticize what you can't understand
     D             Bm               G           D
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
                         A
Your old road is rapidly agin'
           D          F#m            G               D
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
        D                 A       D
For the times, they are a-changin'


Verse 5:

D               Bm         G            D
The line, it is drawn, the curse, it is cast
             Em       A
The slow one now will later be fast
       D       Bm       G        D
As the present now will later be past
                     A
The order is rapidly fadin'
        D     F#m      G        D
The first one now will later be last
        D                 A       D
For the times, they are a-changin'
        D                 A       D
For the times, they are a-changin
