Another nice, early (late 60's) Jesse Winchester song.
As soon as I can work out some TAB on this one there is
a really nice little pattern in this one. Sing this one
with lots of feeling.

Glory to the Day

Words and Music by Jesse Winchester

Key of D


[D]Have you ever stood at a [A7]real old water [D]well

And [A7] dropped a rock and listened while it [D]fell.

You're [A7]listening, listening while it [D]fell.


[D]Have you ever watched a [A7]fire burn all [D]night,

And the [A7]ashes cool just as the sky gets [D]light.

You're [A7]watching the darkness growing [D]light.


[Instrumental interlude]


[D]Well the real old water [A7]well, well that's

your [D]soul. So [A7]silent and so deep inside its

[D]hole. Its [A7]answer is so very far [D]away.


[D]And the magic of the [A7]light, well that's our

[D]way. We'll [A7]mourn the nights, we'll glorify

the [D]day. So [A7]thank you, glory to our [D]day.

Mm-Mm-Mm-Mm [A7]thank you glory to the [D]day.
