Title: How Come the Sun
Subtitle: Tom Paxton
GHow come the sun didn't Cmake it today?
GIs it Emtired of what it's been Cshining Ddown on?
GCould it be God didn't Cwake it today? You couldn't Bmblame him
DSometimes it D7feels like the Gsun Emjust comes Cup out of Dhabit
And Ggoes Emdown as Cquick as it Dcan
GThese Emdays you Cjust have to Dgrab it as Emit goes Em7by
How come the stars didn't come out tonight?
Are they tired of what they've been shining down on?
Could it be God had a few doubts tonight? You couldn't blame him
Sometimes it seems like the stars are just going through motions
They don't see the point of it all
They shine, shine, but you get the notion, they wonder why
EMaybe the sun saw everyone Apulling his neighbor's hair
EHe couldn't rise with all the skies Afilling with filthy air
CDo you suppose that he knows?
That he Bknows, but he won't tell us.
How come the Moon just wont rise up and shine?
Is it tired of what it's been shining down on?
Could it be God couldn't make up his mind? You couldn't blame him,
Sometimes it feels like the Moon's heart just isn't in it.
It give less than all of its light.
It shines, shines, but just when it's greatest, it starts to die.
[Repeat verse 1]
