Dino Valenti), 1966· Songs Well-Known in America · p.116
Intro: A G (x3)
A G
Love is but the song we sing, fear's the way we die.
A G
You can make the mountains ring, or make the angels cry.
A G
Though the bird is on the wing, and you may not know why.
Chorus:
D E
C'mon people now, smile on your brother,
A D E A
everybody get together, try to love one another right now.
A G
Some may come and some may go, we will surely pass.
A G
When the one that left us here, returns for us at last.
A G
We are but a moments sunlight, fading in the grass. (Chorus)
(Instrumental Solo) (Chorus)
A G
If you hear the song I sing, you will understand... listen (whispered)
A G
You hold the key to love and fear, all in your trembling hand.
A G
Just one key unlocks them both; It's there at your command. (Chorus)
Outro:
D E
C'mon people now, smile on your brother,
A D
everybody get together, try to love one
E A
another right now.
A
Right now, right now...
