[Verse]G Em C GCome writers and critics who prophesize with your penG Am C DAnd keep your eyes wide the chance won't come againG Em C GAnd don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spinG Am DAnd there's no tellin' who that it's namin'D D7 D6 DFor the loser now will be later to winG C D GFor the times they are a-changin'[Bridge]G - Em - C - GG - Am - C - D
