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

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

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
