G           Bm                    D
Comes a time, when you’re driftin’
D                      Am7        C
Comes a time, when you settle down
G               Bm              D
  Comes a light, feelings liftin’
D                       Am7           C
Lift that baby right up off the ground

Chorus:
G     F       C            G
Oh, this old world keeps spinnin’ ‘round
G       F            C          G
It’s a wonder tall trees ain’t laying down
G              Dm7 G
There comes a time

You and I, we were captured
We took our souls and we flew away
We were right, we were giving
That's how we kept what we gave away

Chorus:
Oh, this old world keeps spinnin' 'round
It's a wonder tall trees ain't layin' down
There comes a time

Oh, this old world keeps spinnin' 'round
It's a wonder tall trees ain't layin' down
There comes a time
There comes a time

Comes a time, comes a time
Comes a time
Comes a time
Comes a time
Comes a time
Comes a time
