A5 Why sleep when the day has been called out by the sun F#5 From the night 'cause the light's gonna shine on everyone A5 Why sleep when the sleep only closes up our eyes F#5 D5 A5 Why sleep when we can watch the sun a-rise A5 We were meant to see the beginning of the day E5 A5 I believe it was planned to lift us this way D5 A5 D5 Take you an apple and take you a song A5 E5 A5 And watch a baby day be born D5 A5 D5 Take you an apple and take you a song A5 E5 A5 And watch a baby day be born Quite quite, said I that's all very well to say But I rose before the dawn to your singing yesterday I couldn't see the rising 'cause the dark was in my sky I couldn't see the sun 'cause the sun was in my eye Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Why sleep, I heard and I followed it today To the top of the hill where the wind songs play And I sing it like I heard it Why I heard it who knows why? Why sleep when we can watch the sun a-rise We were meant to see the beginning of the day I believe it was planned to lift us this way Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Take you an apple and take you a song Watch a baby day be born Take you an apple and take you a song Take back an answer to something gone wrong Take back some music and take me along And watch a baby day be born Watch a baby day be born
