The Time It Is Today
(Russ Giguere)
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
Very complex and personal, an excellent work by Russell Giguere. At
times very pastoral, at times very angry, one man`s plea for humanity to
wake up.

Verse 1:
Cmaj7 Em9
Sunrise, sunset
Cmaj7 Em9
What you`re born with is what you get
G CaddD G CaddD
Let your fear just pass away
G CaddD G Cmaj9
Then your love will fill your days
Em9
I know
Verse 2:
I need so little, yet so much
Child`s sweet laughter, woman`s touch
I can`t say just what is real
All I know is what I feel
I know
Bridge:
D7
(Ba-ba-ba...) The time it is today
And we must find our way
My heartbeat clearly states
The answer`s not in hate
G/B G A
I once believed that love was but a dream
D7
But now I know
G/B G A
That love`s a flowing stream
Bm
They`re lying, killing, they`re pushing their rules
G
They tell me the prophets all were just fools
Bm
But I know different and I won`t be used
G
It`s they that are lost
Cmaj7 Em9 Cmaj7 Em9
It`s they are confused
(They are confused)
(They are confused)
Verse 3:
Sunrise, sunset
What you`re born with is what you get
All your world is all your fears
They don`t change, but pass in years
Em9 E [end cold]
I know
