 Dm      F

Time to lie
Time to laugh
Time to die

Chorus:
Gm       D#     D
Takes it easy, baby
Gm      D#     D
Take it as it comes
Gm     D#       D
Don't move too fast
    Gm             D#      D
And you want your love to last
                Gm     D#        D
Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

Time to walk
Time to run
Time to aim your arrows
At the sun

Chorus

Go real slow
You'll like it more and more
Take it as it comes
Specialize in having fun

Chorus
