I Saw The Time Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Csus4][C]
[F][C]

[Verse 1]
I saw the [C]time
When every baby that was born
Was wanted and had a place to stay warm
And when the farmers could exist
To feed the hungry in our midst

[Verse 2]
I saw the time
[C]
When the poor could still have pride
And hard [F]work paid off in time
I saw [C]the time
When the homeless had a home
And the [F]old could carry on
[Dm]I saw [F]the[C] time, I saw[F] the time
[C]

[Verse 3]
I saw [F]the time
Dream after [Em]dream,
scene after [F]scene
Time after [Em]time, [Dm]I saw the time
[C]

[Verse 4]
I saw the time
When special kids got a chance
And [F]handicapped could advance
[C]I saw the time
When we walked the streets without risk
And [F]families still prayed
and hugged and kissed

[Verse 5]
I [C]saw the time
When nature was so clean
We could [F]eat from the field and streams
I saw the [C]time
And when the bombs would
not [Gm]explode
And [F]all the people got to [Dm]vote
I saw [C]the time, [F]I saw [C]that time

[Verse 6]
[C]Oh, I saw [F]the time
Dream after dream,
[Em]scene after scen[F]e
Time after time,
[Em]I sa[Dm]w the time[C]
[D]

[Verse 7]
I saw the time
When we went to the moon
And disaster struck too soon
I saw that time
When little Samantha Smith was so [G]brave
And made that grin [D]and call

[Verse 8]
[D]And when the Bears' Vincent Woody
Paced the [G]sidelines
and coached foot[D]ball
When John,
George and Martin walked [G]around
(I saw [D]the time)
When John, Paul, George and Ringo
Brought the [G]sound[D]

[Verse 9]
[D]When everybody held hands
And the children smiled,
mama's and daddy?s smiled
Grandma?s and Grandpa?s smiled,
and God smiled

[Verse 10]
I saw [G]the time
Dream after dream, scene after [G]scene
Time after time, [Em]whoa,

[Outro 1]
I saw the time
[D][C][G][Am][D]
