The Time Is Now

• Am

         Am                       Am 
I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew 
             Am                  Am 
I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth 
          D           Am              F      G 
And I was told not to speak til I was spoken to 
           Am                            Am 
I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do 
And the choir sang 
Am     C     Dm    Am    Am     C     Dm    Am 
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh   Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh 
                Am                     Am 
I tried to be a good boy but I ain't a boy no more 
          Am                          Am 
I've seen some things that a man just can't ignore 
         D            Am            F        G 
And this world's gone see what I am standing for 
             Am                     Dm     G 
I've kept my peace, I can't hold my tongue anymore 
          Am                        C 
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice 
          Dm                    Am        Em 
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise 
Am                             C 
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth 
              Dm                    F 
But there's a time to speak and the time is now 
Am     C     Dm    Am    Am     C     Dm    Am 
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh   Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh 
            Am              Am 
The squeaky wheel is always getting greased 
                  Am                      Am 
I've been sitting still, Park here on the side of the street 
       D          A             F        G 
Always tip-toeing trying not to wake the beast 
              Am                                G 
Oh but here I come, All you monsters had better run from me 

               
          Am                       C 
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice 
          D                     Am        Em 
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise 
Am                             C 
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth 
              Dm                    F       G 
But there's a time to speak and the time is now 
F     G (Not exactly sure here) 
Ooh It's the time and the time is now 
Am     C     Dm    Am    Am     C     Dm    Am 
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh   Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh  

(Chorus x2) 

Am     C     Dm    Am    Am     C     Dm    Am 
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh   Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh 
Am     C     Dm    Am    Am     C     Dm    Am 
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh   Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
