The Beach Boys - Isn't It Time
Key of A, tabbed by ear on a ukulele
This tab was rejected upon first submission, as there is already another chord
sheet for this song. I've added an explanation this time, as this version is
very different from the other existing tab.
This is not a correction of Version 1, as I made this from scratch before
Version 1 was posted, but this is still a massive improvement:
- Chord timing lines up with lyrics now
- Many wrong lyrics are fixed
- D is actually Bm in verses and chorus
- Chords at the end of Chorus 1 were wrong - now fixed
- Bridge was completely wrong - now fixed
VERSE 1:
After it's [A]all been said[F#m]
The music spinning [A]in our head[F#m]
Can't forget the [Bm]feeling of[E]
The magic of that [Bm]summer love[E]
Ooh, I wanna [A]take you there[F#m]
Do you wanna [A]turn back the page[F#m]s?
Memories and [Bm]photographs
The [E]world is changed
And [Bm]yet the game is [E]still the same[E]
CHORUS:
[A]Isn't it time we [F#m]danced the night away
[A]How about doing it [F#m]just like yesterday?
[Bm]Every time I [E]think of you
[Bm]All of those things we [E]used to do
Re[A]member those nights we [F#m]spent, just you and I
[A]Little did we know [F#m]how the time will fly
[Bm]Isn't it time,[E] oh, oh
[Bm]Isn't it time[E]
[G]Oh, [D]oh
VERSE 2:
The good times never [A]have to [F#m]end
Now's the time to [A]let them happen ag[F#m]ain
We can have our[Bm]selves a blast
The [E]good times, they aren't [Bm]only in the [E]past
CHORUS:
[A]Isn't it time we [F#m]danced the night away
[A]How about doing it [F#m]just like yesterday?
[Bm]Every time I [E]think of you
[Bm]All of those things we [E]used to do
Re[A]member those nights we [F#m]spent, just you and I
[A]Little did we know [F#m]how the time will fly
[Bm]Isn't it time,[E] oh, oh
[Bm]Isn't it time
[E]Oh, [E]oh
BRIDGE:
[Bm]And as the [E]sun goes down we [A]raise a [E]glass to [F#m]kind[A]ness
[D]To all the [E]good times we share
[G]Isn't it time we get [D]ready again
[D]Isn't it time we go [E]steady again?
CHORUS: (acapella first 2 lines, then repeat chorus)
[A]Isn't it time we [F#m]danced the night away
[A]How about doing it [F#m]just like yesterday?
[Bm]Every time I [E]think of you
[Bm]All of those things we [E]used to do
Re[A]member those nights we [F#m]spent, just you and I
[A]Little did we know [F#m]how the time will fly
[Bm]Isn't it time,[E] oh, oh
[Bm]Isn't it time[E]
