And now I know

And I thank the Lord there's people out there like you

I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
CHORUS:

While Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters

Sons of bankers sons of lawyers

Turn around and say good morning to the night
E7 Am C
For unless they see the sky
F C D
But they can't and that is why
F G F Am Dm C
They know not if it's dark outside or light
C F(2) C
This Broadway's got
E7 Am
It's got a lot of songs to sing

I thank the Lord for the people I have found
