A SIGN OF THE TIMES
By: Tony Hatch
Petula Clark
Key: C

 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
 -7   7    -6   6  -5
That your love for me 
5  -5   6   -6  6     6    -5
is get-ting so much strong-er
 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
-7  7  -6   6  -5   5
And I know that I won't 
 -5  6   -6   6     6  -5
have to wait much long-er
  6       7   -7 -8   -7   7
You've changed a lot some-how 
 -7  -7   6 -5   5  -5  6   7  -7
from the one I used to know-oh-oh
 6   7   -7   -8  -7  7  7   -6    -6   6
For when you hold me now it feels like you 
-5  5   -5  6  -6  6  6-5
Nev-er want to let me go

 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
 -7   7   -6  6  -5
That you call me up 
 5   -5 6  -6   6    6   -5
when-ev-er you feel lone-ly
 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
 -7   7   -6    6    -5
That you tell your friends 
 5   -5   6   -6   6  6  -5
that I'm your one and on-ly
 6    7-7-8 -8 -7    7   -7   6
I'll nev-er un-der-stand the way 
-5    5   -5 6  7  -7
you treat-ed me-ee-ee
 6   7  -7  -8   -7   7
But when I hold your hand 
7  7   -6    -6   6  -5
I know you could-n't be 
 5  -5   6   -6  7  7
the way you used to be

CHORUS
 7  7  7   -7* -7  7  
May-be my luck-y star 
-6  7   -7 -7* -7 -6   7
at last de-cid-ed to shine
-6  -6  7    7* 7  -6   -5*  -6
May-be some-bod-y knows how long 
 -7*  7*  7  -5* -6   7   7
I've wait-ed to make you mine
 
 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
 -7   7   -6  6  -5
That you kiss me now 
5  -5  6   -6  6   6   -5
as if you real-ly mean it
 4   3  4   -5  6    7
It's a sign of the times
-7  7  -6  6 -5
And a year a-go 
5 -5  6   -6    6    6   -5
I nev-er could have seen it
  6   7  -7   -8    -7   7
Don't ev-er change your mind 
-7   6    -5   5  -5  6  7  -7
and take your love a-way-ay-ay
 6     7   -7   -8   -7  7    7
Just leave the fires be-hind and, 
-6 -6  6  6   -5   5  -5  6  -6 7   7
ba-by, on-ly think of how it is to-day

 4   3  4   -5  6  7   -7
It's a sign of the ti-imes
 8   8  -8  -8 -7  7 -7 6 7  -7
It's a sign of the ti-i-i-i-imes
4   3  4   -5  6  7   -7
It's a sign of the ti-imes
 8   8  -8  -8 -7  7 -7 6 7  -7
It's a sign of the ti-i-i-i-imes
