TIME PASSES SLOWLY- Bob Dylan
E D A F#m
Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
E D A F#m
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains
G#m A G#m A
Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
E D A F#m E
Time passes slowly when you’re lost in a dream
E D A F#m
Once I had a sweetheart she was fine and good lookin’
E D A F#m
We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin A B
A B
Stared out the window to the stars high above
A G#m Bsus4 B E7
Time passes slowly when you’re searchin’ for love
BRIDGE:
A7 E7
Ain’t no reason to go in a wagon to town
A7 E7
Ain’t no reason to go to the fair
A7 E7
Ain’t no reason to go up, ain’t no reason to go down
B Bsus4 B Bsus4 B Bsus4
Ain’t no reason to go anywhere
E D A F#m
Time passes slowly up here in the daylight
E D A F#m
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Bsus4 A Bsus4 A
Like the red rose of summer that blooms in the day
Bsus4 A G#m F#m E
Time passes slowly and fades away
Bsus4: 2 2 4 4 5 2
