C# F# G G#
Listen easy, you can hear God calling
C# F# G# F# G#
Walking barefoot by the stream
C# F# G G#
Come on to me, Your hair's softly falling
C# F# G#
On my face as in a dream
F# C#
And the time will be our time
F# C#
And the grass won't pay no mind
C# F# G G#
Saying nothing, lying where the sun is
C# F# G# F# G#
Baking down upon our sides
C# F# G G#
My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses
C# F# G#
Your hands gentle in reply
F# C#
And the time will be our time
F# C# G#
And the grass won't pay no mind
C# F#
Child, touch my soul with your cries
G# C#
And the music will know what we've found
C# F#
I, hear a hundred good-byes
C# D#m
But today I hear only one sound
C# D#m
The moment we're living is now
D#m
{NC}
Now now now now now now now
C# F# G G#
Young bird flying, and a soft wind blowing
C# F# G# F# G#
Cools the sweat inside my palms
C# F# G G#
Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing
C# F# G#
As you lay sleeping in my arms
F# C#
And the time will be our time
F# C#
And the grass won't pay no mind
F# C#
No the grass won't pay no mind
