DAY IS DONE

Peter Yarrow

[G] Tell me why you're [Am] crying my son,
[D] I know you're frightened like [G] everyone.
[Em] Is it the thunder in the [Am] distance you fear?
[Bm] Will it help if I [C] stay very [Am] near? [D] I am [G] here.

[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done,
[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done.
[G] Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done,
Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done.

[G] Do you ask why I'm [Am] sighing, my son?
[D] You shall inherit what man-[G]-kind has done.
[Em] In a world filled with [Am] sorrow and woe,
[Bm] If you ask me [C] why this is [Am] so, [D] I really don't [G] know.

[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done,
[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done.
[G] Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done,
Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done.

[G] Tell me why you're [Am] smiling, my son,
[D] Is there a secret you can [G] tell everyone?
[Em] Do you know more than [Am] those that are wise?
[Bm] Can you see what we [C] all must dis-[Am]-guise
[D] Through your loving [G] eyes?

[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done,
[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done.
[G] Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done,
Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done.

[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done,
[G] And if you [C] take my hand my [G] son,
[G] All will be [D] well when the day is [G] done.
[G] Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done,
Day is [D] done, Day is [G] done.
