Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Love is but a song we sing

And fear's the way we die

You can make the mountains ring

Or make the angels cry

Though the bird is on the wing

And you may not know why

Chorus

C'mon people now

Smile on your brother

Ev'rybody get together

Try to love one another right now

Verse 2

Some will come and some will go

We shall surely pass

When the one that left us here

Returns for us at last

We are but a moment's sunlight

Fading in the grass

repeat chorus, twice

Verse 3

If you hear the song I sing

You will understand (listen!)

You hold the key to love and fear

In your trembling hand

Just one key unlocks them both

It's there at your command

repeat chorus, 3 times

... right now, right now
