Today

By Randy Sparks
Rise Up Singing chapter: Time and Changes, p.228

Chorus:
C Am F G / / C C7 F Fm
C Am Dm G - C ( Am F G )
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joys that are mine today

Verses:
C Am F G / / / F G C ( G )
Well I'll be a dandy and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the song that I sing
I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow may bring?

I can't be contented with yesterday's glories
I can't live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment and now is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing
