lyrics from reprint of 1966 sheet music
D When the world and CI were young just D7susyesterday. D7
D Life was such a Csimple game a Dchild could play.D7
CIt D7was Deasy then to tell
DRight from wrong
BmEasy then to tell
BmWeak from strong,
C When a man should Dstand and fight Bm
AmOr just Bmgo aC6long. D
But toCday there is no Dday or nigBmht
ToAmday there D7is no Ddark or light
ToCday there Dis no Bmblack Dor Cwhite
DOnly Cshades of graD7susy. D7
D I remember Cwhen the answers D7susseemed so clear, D7
D We had never Clived with doubt or Dtasted fear D7
CIt D7was Deasy then to tell
DTruth from lies
Bm Selling out
BmFrom compromise
C Who to love and Dwho to hatBme
The Amfoolish Bmfrom the C6wise.
But toCday there is no Dday or nigBmht
ToAmday there D7is no Ddark or light
ToCday there Dis no Bmblack Dor Cwhite
DOnly Cshades of graD7susy. D7
It was Deasy then to know
DWhat was fair
Bm When to keep
And Bmwhen to share
C How much to proDtect your hearBmt
AmAnd how Bmmuch to C6care.
But toCday there is no Dday or nigBmht
ToAmday there D7is no Ddark or light
ToCday there Dis no Bmblack Dor Cwhite
DOnly Cshades of graD7susy. D7
