Why sleep when the day has been called out by the sun
Em C G
From the night, 'cause the light's gonna shine on everyone
Why sleep when the sleep only closes up our eyes
Em C G D G
Why sleep when we can watch the sun arise
We were meant to see the beginning of the day
D G
I believe it was planned to lift us this way
C G C
Take you an apple and take you a song
G D G
Watch a baby day be born
C G C
Take you an apple and take you a song
G D G D G
Watch a baby day be born
"Quite, quite", said I, that's all very well to say
Em
But I rose before the dawn, to your singing yesterday
G
I couldn't see the rising, 'cause the dark was in my sky
Em C G D G
I couldn't see the sun, 'cause the sun was in my eye
C G C
Take you an apple and take you a song
G D G
Watch a baby day be born
C G C
Take you an apple and take you a song
G D G D G

Why sleep, I heard and I followed it today
Em
To the top of the hill where the wind songs play
G
And I sing it like I heard it
Why I heard it who knows why?
Em C G D G
Why sleep when we can watch the sun arise
We were meant to see the beginning of the day
