Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
B A E C#m
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains

Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
B A E C#m
Time passes slow when you're lost in a dream
[Chorus]

La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
[Verse 2]

Once I had a sweetheart, she was fine and good-lookin'
B A E C#m
We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin'
A G#m A G#m
Stared out the window to the stars high above
B A E C#m
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love
[Chorus]

E B
Ain't no reason to go in a morning to town
E B
Ain't no reason to go to the fair
E B
Ain't no reason to go up, ain't no reason to go down
A E
Ain't no reason to go anywhere
[Verse 3]

Time passes slowly up here in the daylight
B A E C#m

Like a cloud drifting over that covers the day

Time passes slowly then fades away
