Am7 D G
There’s a little light inside of every one of us.
Am7 D G
Through the darkness all of us must go.
Am7 D G Em
By His grace we’ll all get to know him well.
Am7 D G
All we got to do is try a little more.
Am7 D G
So let’s not wait till tomorrow.
Am7 D G
Why not start it today.
Am7 D G Em
There’s so many little doors to open you know,
Am7 D G
And He’s always there to guide us on our way.
I thought that I had things to do in my life.
Never time to stop and look around.
Sisters and brothers in need of my love,
I guess it’s time I gave them what I should.
So let’s not wait till tomorrow.
Why not start it today.
There’s so many little doors to open you know,
And He’s always there to guide us on our way.
The Time has come to march to the future
Obstacles may stand in our way
But with love and strength deep in our hearts
You know we’re gonna see better days.
So let’s not wait till tomorrow.
Why not start it today.
There’s so many little doors to open you know,
And He’s always there to guide us on our way.

So, sit on the right side
Stay on the bright side
Try and Let your spirit soar
What's yours is yours
And hers is hers
No need for anything more
Don't think about taking it
You can't go on faking it
You'll only tie your mind in a knot
You know I'm not preaching
I'm really just seeking
To find out what's right and wha’s not.
What' yours is yours
And hers is hers
No need for anything more
Don’t take you just can’t make it
You don’t need anyone’s stuff.

D G D
From the forest edge I gaze far and wide
A D
Soaking up the peace of the summer sky.
D G D
The buzz of a bee, the rooster’s crow.
A D
My heart starts beating because now I know:
A G D
We’re in the land of purest emotions
A G D
Filled with those sweet vibrations
A G D
We‘re heading towards our cosmic destination
A G D
We’re sitting in the lap of creation.
Stately white birch aligned in a row
Tower above the green plains below.
The cows tug the grass
The children run and play
I glance all around and stop when they say:
We’re in the land of purest emotions
Filled with those sweet vibrations
We‘re heading towards our cosmic destination
We’re sitting in the lap of creation.
A woodpecker pokes and a bird softly sings.
My heart fills with joy and my soul has wings.
I gaze at the sky and the clouds overhead.
There’s beauty all around and that’s why it’s said:
We’re in the land of purest emotions
Filled with those sweet vibrations
We‘re heading towards our cosmic destination
We’re sitting in the lap of creation.

Crazy Old Town
03:40
|

Watching the people on the subway
oh what a trip
enjoying their lives again without any hitch
I don't know how it happened
but we can't let it slip
That's the way it's supposed to be
And you know it looks so pretty
Groovin' on the joyful city
Unfolding our lives in this crazy old town
I can go for a ride at a quarter past midnight
zip down the street at a quarter to three
I can glide throught the park
even after dark
And that's the way it's supposed to be
And you know it looks so pretty
Groovin' on the joyful city
Unfolding our lives in this crazy old town
So many different faces from all the world round
enjoying their lives making one big sound
smiles and tears and ups and downs
we[re gonna come around
because the way its supposed to be
And you know it looks so pretty
Groovin' on the joyful city
Unfolding our lives in this crazy old town
And you know it looks so pretty
Groovin' on the joyful city
Unfolding our lives in this crazy old town

Do I Need It?
03:24
|
|||
I know You've got stuff.
Houses, cars, clothes, gadgets and things
And you're looking for more, that's for sure.
But do you have need, or is it
just your sky-licking greed?
If you take too much.
Someone may go homeless, shirtless, toothless, luckless and more.
That's the way, the way the world works.
I think it's time to cut down on some of those perks.
And before you grab anything, ask yourself one time,
Do I need it? Do I need it?
So, take what you need.
Get your food, clothes, medicine, shelter and all.
Take what you need, but nothing more.
You'll be happier than you ever were before
And before you grab anything, ask yourself one time,
Do I need it? Do I need it?

Be Kind to Everyone

D G A D
There goes a little girl in the light
D G A D
There runs a little boy, treat him right
G A G A
Don't hurt your brother, don't your sister
G A D G D
Be kind to everyone day and night
There flies a humming bird oh so nice
I think I see a rabbit in the night
Watch what you say, watch what you do
Be kind to everyone day and night
There jumps a little frog in the creek
Now I see a baby day oh so sweet.
Spread love to everyone
Go out and have some fun
Be kind to everyone, day and night.
Day and night!

Crazy Bliss

C D C
What’s that feeling coming over me
G C D C
When I gaze into your smiling face?
G C D C
And what’s that joy that fills me up
G C D C
When I start to think about your Grace?
G C D
Could it be that crazy bliss?
G C D C
It’s got to be that crazy bliss.
GCDC GCD (short interlude between verses)
What’s that thrill lifts me higher and higher
And opens my heart to a world in woe?
And what’s that love that gets me inspired
To share it all with one and all?
Could it be that crazy bliss?
It’s got to be that crazy bliss.
Just keep me going until I merge
With you dear one, with you dear one
There’s a world out there that I want to serve
And I’ll get my strength from a certain place
Could it be that crazy bliss?
It’s got to be that crazy bliss.
