Intro….
Am--A---Am---A-----E---C-----G----Am-----C---
And I really don't like Rushing through life
G------Am---------A----Am----------------A--------
Takin' no time
to smell the flowers
Am----C---G------------Dm----------------D--------
Years pass
like hours
A-E----D---------G------------------------------------
The seasons rush by
G--------------Am--------------------------------------
There's a song
in the wind
Am----------------------A------------------------------
And I feel it
again
Am------------A----------------------------------------
There'll be no
time to smell the flowers
G--------C------G-------------------Dm----Em-F----
Blind eyes to
the colours
Dm---------F-------G-----------------------------------
Seasons rush by
G--------Am---------------------------------------------
There's no time to regret…..No time for cryin'
F--------G------------------C--F--------------G--------
There's a way to forget But it dulls the senses
G---------------------------C-----Am--------G--------
I want to live With all my powers
G----------------C----F-------G------------------------
Asking for this Could be askin' for trouble
G------------------C---------Am---------G------Am--
Am----A---Am----A------G--C----A--G-----Am---
Aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah
C----Am-G-------Am-----E---C---Am------D-------
And I really don't like Rushing through life
G------Am-----------------A----------------------------
Takin' no time to take no chances

Danger in the dancing Seasons rush by
Dm-----D--------G----------------Am-----------------
There's a song in the wind And I feel it again

There'll be no
time to smell the flowers
Am-----C------G--------------D--------------Dm---F--
Tears pass like hours Seasons rush by
Am----F----------G---------------Am--------A---------
There's a wolf
in disguise
F#m-------G-----------C----------------------------------
Makes us pay
our brothers
C-----------F-----------------------------------------------
He puts fear
in our eyes
G----------------Bm--C-----------------------------------
And he dulls the senses

We want to live With all our powers
