The day of creation 
Was our finest hour 
It's something we ought to defend 
But it's been so abused 
Since the first day of light 
That no glory can come in the end

Young man cried the old man 
There is victory in staying alive 
And if you care so little 
For the world we're in 
Why and what do you 
Want to survive

Am (x02210@1)Can't we try 
           Bb (x1333x@1)To let the past go by 
          C (x32010@1)With it's lessons firmly 
              Em (022000@1)Settled in our minds 
       Dm (xx0231@1)To our children one by one 
      G (320003@1)And before the darkness comes 
       C (x32010@1)                   F (133211@1)Let us leave a world full of light 
               Dm (xx0231@1)Of a different kind

Am (x02210@1)In truth they should meet 
         Dm (xx0231@1)And with love 
Their hearts should beat 
         G (320003@1)And with patience 
          E (022100@1)             Am (x02210@1)Solve the problems of our time

It wouldn't be so hard to do 
It's only up to me and you 
Let us not bequeath 
A life that is a crime

       C (x32010@1)                     Dm (xx0231@1)But we can't find the things we need

Young man cried the old man 
Let the youth in your heart be at rest 
We may all be dead 
In a year or a day 
When the devil is put to the test
