      D                         
You don’t  wanna hang around

                      F#m           G
Said you were leaving town for the summer 

             A   D          Dsus2
At least til sundown 

        D        Dsus2        
Cause time ain't gonna grind you down, 

      Dsus2             F#m
ain't gonna waste your life 

         G                A   D
chasing rainbows like some clown 
 



     F#m         G            D  A
But who’s gonna come with you tonight 

                G            D  A
Whose going to tell you it’s alright? 

            Em     D    A
Everything changes over time 

           D           Dsus2
Just like wine 

 
 

D             Dsus2       D
Time ain't gonna hold you up,

       Dsus2           F#m       G         A         D
Ain't going to make it stop long enough to ease your mind,

       Dsus2              F#m      G
Ain’t gonna    make   it last   forever 
 


Ref.:

D,   D/C#,

    G/B                  A7
And you... whatcha gonna do? 

              Gmaj7
Walk this solitary? 

             Bm
It's so unnecessary 

         Em
But it’s alright 

          D
It’s your birthright 

A                    G              D   A
Hey hey everything’s different down the line 

           G        D      A
everything changes over time 

 
 

D             Dsus2      D
Time ain't gonna make it worse 

      Dsus2            F#m           G
It’s going to make you start feeling better 

A         D       Dsus2
Just like wine 

D                    F#m     G
We’re gonna make it last forever 

 
 
Ref.:

D,   D/C#,

    G/B
And you... 

              A7
Whatcha gonna do? 

             Gmaj7
Just be ordinary? 

               Bm
It's so unnecessary 

         Em
But it’s all right 

         G
Yes it’s alright 

          D             Dsus2
It’s your birthright 

          D
It’s your birthright





I've listened to the song over and over, and I think this is quite accurate.

Enjoy!
