Well, the [C] smart money's on [C] Harlow and the [C] moon is in the street [C]
And the [F] shadow boys are [G7] breaking all the [C] laws [C]
And you're [F] east of East Saint [G7] Louis and the [C] wind is making [C] speeches
And the [F] rain sounds like a [F] round of app[G7] lause [G7]
And [C] Napoleon is [C] weeping in a [C] carnival saloon [C]
His in[F] visible [G7] fiancee's in the mir[C] ror [C]
And the [F] band is going [G7] home
It's raining [C] hammers, it's raining [C] nails
And it's [F] true there's nothing [F] left for him [G7] down here [G7]
And it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time [C]
And it's [F] time, [C] time, [G7] time [G7]
And it's [C] time, [Em] time, [F] time, that you [Dm] love
And it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time [C]
And they [C] all pretend they're orphans and their [C] memory's like a train
You can [F] see it getting [G7] smaller as it pulls a[C] way [C]
And the [F] things you can't re[G7] member tell the [C] things you can't [C] forget
That [F] history puts a [F] saint in every [G7] dream [G7]
Well, she [C] said she'd stick around until the [C] bandages came off
But these [F] mama's boys just [G7] don't know when to [C] quit [C]
And Ma[F] thilda asks the [G7] sailors:
"Are those [C] dreams or are those [C] prayers?"
So [F] close your eyes, [F] son, and this [G7] won't hurt a bit [G7]
Oh, it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time
And it's [F] time, [C] time, [G7] time
And it's [C] time, [Em] time, [F] time that you [Dm] love
And it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time
Well, [C] things are pretty [C] lousy for a [C] calendar girl [C]
The [F] boys just dive right off the [G7] cars and splash into the [C] street [C]
And [F] when they're on a [G7] roll she pulls a [C] razor from her [C] boot
And a [F] thousand pigeons [F] fall around her [G7] feet [G7]
So put a [C] candle in the window[C] and a [C] kiss upon his lips [C]
As the [F] dish outside the [G7] window fills with [C] rain [C]
[F] Just like a [G7] stranger with the [C] weeds in your heart [C]
[F] And pay the [F] fiddler off 'til I come [G7] back again [G7]
Oh, it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time
And it's [F] time, [C] time, [G7] time
And it's [C] time, [Em] time, [F] time that you [Dm] love
And it's [C] time, [G7] time, [C] time
