Key: G
Introduction:
G G7M C
I let time go lightly when I'm here with you
Am D C G C
I let time go lightly when the day is through
G G7M C
I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do
Am D C G
I let time go lightly with you
G C G C G C G
Morning, a time for breaking ground and sowing seed
C D C G
And yet we give up our sunshine so we can buy what we need
C G C G C G C G
And that leaves the evening to share a fire with a friend or two
G C D C G
to lose sight of the hours to go lightly with you
{chorus}
C G D G A
When I was a child my mother would help me along
A C
She'd rock me to sleep and sing me a song
C G D G A
So I learned to love the music of all the tunes in my head
A C
The changing of chords, the rhythm of time
{chorus}
C D C
Yes I let time go lightly with you
Am D/F# G
and a fire and a friend or two
Am C D/F# G
With you and a fire and a friend or two
C G
A friend or two, and you
