TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF MY LIFE
RHYMES AND REASONS (1969)
G+G
Today is the first day
C majorC
of the rest of my life
A minorAm
I wake as a child
E minorEm
to see the world again
on monarch wings
A minorAm E minorEm
and birthday wonderings
D MajorD
want to put on faces
A minorAm 
A7A7 D MajorD
walk in the wet and cold
G+G 
B minorBm E minorEm
and look forward to my growing old
D MajorD
to grow is to change
E minorEm
to change is to be new
A minorAm
to be new is to be young again
C majorC D MajorD
I barely remember when
E minorEm A minorAm E minorEm
my memories are stolen by the morning
E minorEm A minorAm E minorEm
blotted out by the sun's hypnotic eye
E minorEm D MajorD
G+G
Today is the first day
C majorC
of the rest of my life
A minorAm
I wake as a child
E minorEm
to see the world begin on monarch wings
A minorAm E minorEm
and birthday wonderings
D MajorD
want to put on faces
A minorAm A7A7 D MajorD
walk in the wet and cold
G+G B minorBm E minorEm
and look forward to my growing old
