[Verse 1]
D C G Em
Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
D C G Em
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains
C Bm C Bm
Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
D C G Em
Time passes slow when you're lost in a dream
[Chorus]
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
[Verse 2]
D C G Em
Once I had a sweetheart, she was fine and good-lookin'
D C G Em
We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin'
C Bm C Bm
Stared out the window to the stars high above
D C G Em
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love
[Chorus]
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
[Middle 8]
G D
Ain't no reason to go in a morning to town
G D
Ain't no reason to go to the fair
G D
Ain't no reason to go up, ain't no reason to go down
C G
Ain't no reason to go anywhere
[Verse 3]
D C G Em
Time passes slowly up here in the daylight
D C G Em
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
C Bm C Bm
Like a cloud drifting over that covers the day
D C G Em
Time passes slowly then fades away
[Chorus]
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
D C G Em
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
