verse 1 
E                                     A 
Before we knew the world was round, before we sailed the sea 
A                                            E 
Before we said what’s yours is yours, what’s mine belongs to me 

verse 2 
E                                    A  
The world was made of people, and no lines were drawn between 
A                               E 
We looked upon a stranger, as a friend we never seen 


[Refrão]
     G#7                          C#m7 
Then somehow we were blinded, somehow we lost our way 
A                                  B                B7  
We let our own difference grow, to what it is today 
E                    G#m7            C#m7           A    A7 
Now faith is getting weaker, and the day is getting near 
A                                       Gdim7               
When a world that grew up smiling, will leave us with a tear 
    G#m7 C#m7  A        E    E F#m7 G#m7 A 
The time fo-or love, is here 

verse 3 
E                                       A 
When life was just a simple thing, like apples on a tree 
A                                    E 
And grass was there to lie upon, and skies were there to see 

verse 4 
E                                     A 
We smiled our smiles together, and we sometimes had to cry 
A                                        E 
We sipped the wine of friendship, and we raised our glasses high 


[Refrão]
    G#7                          C#m7 
And now we sit and wonder, where did it all go wrong 
A                               B    
It may be in the singing, we forgot about the song 
E                   G#m7          C#m7        A   A7 
And time is rushing by us, by the hour by the year 
A                                Gdim7        
We cannot wait for miracles,  to suddenly appear 

Outro 
    G#m7 C#m7  A         G#m7 C#m7  A 
The time fo-or love, the time fo-or love 
    G#m7 C#m7  A        E   F#m7  B 
The time fo-or love, is here 
    G#m7 C#m7  A         G#m7 C#m7  A 
The time fo-or love, the time fo-or love 
    G#m7 C#m7  A        E    F#m7 B Emaj7 
The time fo-or love, is here
