A           G         D           Bm
Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
   A          G           D           Bm
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains
G              F#m         G                 F#m
Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
A           G                D         Bm
Time passes slow when you're lost in a dream


[Chorus]
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la


[Verse 2]
A            G                   D             Bm
Once I had a sweetheart, she was fine and good-lookin'
A               G                 D        Bm
  We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin'
G              F#m           G           F#m
Stared out the window to the stars high above
A           G                  D             Bm
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love


[Chorus]
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la


[Bridge]
         D                 A
Ain't no reason to go in a morning to town
         D                   A
Ain't no reason to go to the fair
         D                         A
Ain't no reason to go up, ain't no reason to go down
         G               D
Ain't no reason to go anywhere


[Verse 3]
A           G         D           Bm
Time passes slowly up here in the daylight
A                  G            D          Bm
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
G                     F#m       G          F#m
Like a cloud drifting over that covers the day
A           G           D      Bm
Time passes slowly then fades away


[Chorus]
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
A            G            D            Bm
La la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
