In The Meantime

Dolly Parton


Tom: C

INTRO:    C7   C
        (HARMONICA)

VERSE:
 C
You know people been talking about the end of time 
Ever since time began
            F
We've been living in the last days 
                         C
Ever since the first day ever since the dawn of Man
Well nobody knows when the end is coming 
     F                        C
But some people tell you they do
Well it might be today, it might be tomorrow, 
   G7            F        C
Or in a million years or two... 


PD-C HORUS:
        Am              C
In the meantime, in between time, 
        Am                   C
Let us make time to make it right
           Am                C
And let us not fear what is not clear 
             Am
Faith should be your guide,
             G
Just follow this advice..
 
And... 


CHORUS:
 F
Think about love; Think about living

Think about love sharing and giving
 C                                              F
Drop the Doomsday attitude and let that spirit flow

These are wonderful times we're living in
                                  
God still walks in the hearts of men
     C             Am             G7               C      
And Eden's garden waves within so let the flowers grow


VERSE:
         C                           
Well we rant and we rave about the "good ol' days"        
And how different it was "back then"
           F
Well the greatest days we've ever known  
         C                         
Are the days we're living in
Well we worry about earthquakes, 
                          F            C
Aliens from outer space, nuclear holocaust

Well we're so consumed with the fear of dying 
     G7     F         C
The joy of living is lost


PD-C HORUS:
        Am              C
In the meantime, in between time, 
        Am                 C
Let us make time to make amends
          Am                         C 
Live the good life, just treat this planet right 
           Am                          G
And try to all be friends and say with me again..
  
Ohhh...! 


CHORUS:
  F
Think about life; Think about living
Think about love - caring and giving
 C                                  F
Drop this Doomsday attitude and get on with the show
We've walked on the moon; been to Mars
Technically we've come so far
      C             Am
But still we wonder who we are  
      G                      C
The farther along we'll live on
                             F
(Farther along we will live) 
                                  C  Am  C
Doodle-doodle doo-doo-doo... ooh-ooh     ooh-ooh


VERSE:
 C
You know people been talking about the end of time 
Ever since time began
            F
We've been living in the last days 
                          C
Ever since the first day ever since the dawn of Man
Well nobody knows when the end is coming
       F                         C
Well that's what the Scriptures say
                                      
But that's a secret known only to God, 
    G7           F         C
He says to just watch and pray


OUTRO:
        Am                     C
In the meantime, what's the hurry?
        Am                     C
In the meantime now don't you worry
        Am                      C
In the meantime live, laugh- be merry
        Am               C
In the meantime, in the meantime
        Am                C
In the meantime troubles gonna show us
        Am                  C
In the meantime the sky is still above us
        Am                      C
In the meantime you know God's gonna love us
        Am               C                Am
In the meantime, in the meantime, in the meantime
