LYRICS:
INTRO: (as tabbed)
VERSE 1: (as tabbed)
Down among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brown
CHORUS: (as tabbed)
Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time
BRIDGE 1: (first four bars of Intro as tabbed)
VERSE 2: (as tabbed x2)
Me and my buddies are travelling people
We like to go down to restaurant row
Spend those Euro-dollars
All the way from Washington to Tokyo
I see them in the airport lounge
Upon their mother's breast
They follow me with open eyes
Their uninvited guest
CHORUS: (as before)
BRIDGE 2: (repeat last four bars of Chorus (sing "Ooh...");
then first four bars of Intro)
VERSE 3: (as tabbed x2)
Too many people on the bus from the airport
Too many holes in the crust of the earth
The planet groans
Every time it registers another birth
But down among the reeds and rushes
A baby girl is found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair is brown
CHORUS: (as before)
ENDING: (as for Bridge 2,
then repeat first two bars of Intro to fade...)

Born at the Right Time ( Paul Simon )
From The Rhythm of the Saints album, 1990
( Live version from "MTV Unplugged", 1992 )
Transcribed and tabbed by Jean-Marc Orliaguet
( jmo@fy.chalmers.se, http://fy.chalmers.se/~jmo )
Notes : Capo 5th fret
This live version is slightly different from the studio track :
it starts with the chorus, and the intro is more finger-picked ...
The stressed notes are marked with a > sign, and the mute notes
with an x.

Lyrics :
Down among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brown
Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time
Me and my buddies we are travelling people
We like to go down to restaurant row
Spend those Euro-dollars
All the way from Washington to Tokyo
I see them in the airport lounge
Upon their mother's breast
They follow me with open eyes
Their uninvited guest
Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time
Too many people on the bus from the airport
Too many holes in the crust of the earth
The planet groans
Every time it registers another birth
But among the reeds and rushes
A baby girl was found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair was brown
Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time
