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

[C] ([E] -[F]) [G]
Saying nothing, lying where the sun is
[C] Baking [F]down upon our [G]sides
[C] ([E] -[F]) [G]
My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses
[C] Your hands [F]gentle in re[G]ply
And the [F]time will be our [C]time
And the [F]grass won't pay no [C]mind [G]

[C]Child, touch my [F]soul with your cries
And the [G]music will know what we've [C]found
[C]I, hear a [F]hundred good-byes
But to[C]day I hear only one [Dm]sound
The [C]moment we're living is [Dm]now
[Dm] [break]
Now now now now now now now

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