C                   G   G7
Hear the children cryin',
Am                          G
But I know they cry not in vain.
C                   G    G7
Now the times are changin',
Am                       G
Love has come to bloom again.

F             C          G
Smelling the air when Spring comes by raindrops,
F              C        G
Reminds us of youthful days.
F                 C    G
But now it's not rain, that water the cane crops,
F
But the sweat from man's brow,
The substance from our spine.
We gotta keep on living, living on borrowed time.

Chorus:
C            Am
(Hallelujah time),
             Dm                G
Yes, you can hear the children singing.
C            Am
(Hallelujah time),
            Dm             G
As they go singing by and by.
C            Am
(Hallelujah time), ooh, hallelujah,
Dm              G
Singing in the morning.
C            Am
(Hallelujah time),
               Dm             G
Let them sing, don't let them cry.

Over rocks and mountains
The sheep are scattered all around
Over hills and valleys
They are everywhere to be found

But though we bear our burdens now
All afflictions got to end somehow
From swinging the hammer, pulling the plough
Why won't you let us be, to live in harmony
We like to be free like birds in a tree

Chorus:
Hallelujah time
Yes, you can hear the children singing
Hallelujah time
As they go singing by and by
Hallelujah time
Oh, "hallelujah" singing in the morning
Hallelujah time
Let them sing, never let them cry
Hallelujah time
Oh, "hallelujah" singing in the morning
Hallelujah time
Oh, "hallelujah" singing by and by
