The Time Is Now Warren Barfield
Standard Tuning EADGBe
[Am]I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew
I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth
And I was [D]told not to [Am]speak til I was [G]spoken to
[Am]I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do
And the choir sang
Woh [C]oh oh [Dm]oh oh oh [Am]oh Woh [C]oh oh [Dm]oh oh oh [Am]oh
[Am]I tried to be a good boy but I ain't a boy no more
I've seen somethings that a man just can't ignore
An[D]d this [Dm]world's gone [Am]see what I am [F]standing [G]for
[Am]I've kept my [A]peace, I can't hold my [D]tongue [G]anymore
=Chorus=
You can't [Am]buy my silence, you can't [C]steal my voice
You can't [D]keep me quiet, I will [Am]bring the [E]noise[G]
Try to [Am]beat me down, tell me to [C]shut my mouth
But there's a [Dm]time to speak and the [F]time is now
[Am]Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
[Am]Woh oh oh oh [Dm]oh oh [Am]oh
The [A]squeaky [Am]wheel is always getting greased
Well, I've been sitting still
Park here on the side of the street
[E]Always [D]tip-toeing [Am]trying not to [F]wake the [G]beast[D] [C]
Oh but here I [Am]come
All you monsters had better [G]run from me
(Chorus 3X)
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
This is my first time putting chords to a song... only because this song is truthful and
my absolute favorite.
I waited a week to wait for someone else, but I couldn't wait any longer lol.
Listen to the song for timing and the strumming pattern. God Bless!
