1. Just in time I heard the cry,
G
Am
and
looking up I saw the snowbirds wheeling in the sky.
Am
F
They said, "We are the
last ones left",
G
Am
and
so I brought them in, I gave them comfort, gave them rest.
F
- G
Am
Just in time, to live another day,
F
G Am
just
in time, oh, they'll live another day.

2. Just in time I read the Book,
G
Am
such
a revelation, we must give back what we took.
Am
F
Or the earth will roar like a
wounded beast,
G
Am
the mountains will
come crashing from the valleys to the sea.
F G
Am
Just in time, oh, don't throw
it all away,
F - G
Am - F - Dm - E
just
in time, don't throw it all away !
Am
F
"Who will save this world
of mine ?
Dm
E Am
Will you save it just in
time?"
Am
F
3. Just in time, I saw the dawn,
G
Am
watched
the sun arising on a field of golden corn.
Am
F
And through the mist, a
million sang,
G
Am
Friends of the Earth, calling
out to every man,
F G
Am
Just in time, oh, don't throw
it all away, no no no !
F G
Am - F - Dm - E
Just in time, oh, we'll live
another day.
Am
Oh, how can I tell you how
close we have come,
F
that
the end of our world has already begun,
Dm
there
are so many things we will not see again,
E
every
day there's another one dying away.
Am
F
Calling for help, help from
your hands,
Dm
E
hand coming
down, down to the world.
Am
F
World, it is time, time for us
all,
Dm E
and
all that is life, to be living together before everything
Am
- F - Dm - E
slips
away.
