This Is the Time sing and play along

Level 4F132 BPMBilly Joel
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

We walked on the beach beside that old hotel.

They're tearin' it down now, but it's just as well.

I haven't shown you ev'rything a man can do,

so stay with me, baby;

I've got plans for you.

This is the time to remember,

'cause it will not last forever.

These are the days to hold on to,

'cause we won't although we'll want to.

This is the time, but time is gonna change.

You've given me the best of you,

but now I need the rest of you.

We walked on the beach beside that old hotel.

They're tearin' it down now, but it's just as well.

This is the time to remember,

'cause it will not last forever.

These are the days to hold on to,

'cause we won't although we'll want to.

This is the time, but time is gonna change.

I know we've got to move somehow,

but I don't want to lose you now.

Sometimes it's so easy to let a day

slip on by

without even seeing each other at all.

But this is the time you'll turn back to and so will

I, and those will be days you can never recall.

although we'll want to.

This is the time, but time is gonna change.

You've given me the best of you,

but now I need the rest of you.
