[VERSE 1]
       G7sus4
In the morning when you rise,
                              G7
Do you open up your eyes, see what I see?
       G7sus4                    G7    G7sus4
Do you see the same things every day?
       G7                          G#dim
Do you think of a way to start the day
        Fdim         Em
Getting things in proportion?
           C                 D         Fm6/Ab
Spread the news and help the world go 'round.

         G7sus4                                    G7       G7sus4
Have you heard of the word that will stop us going wrong?
          G7                           G#dim
Well, the time is near the word you'll hear
         Fdim             Em
When you get things in perspective.
           C                 D       Fm6/Ab
