Chapter Five

SUN COME UP
[ a song, folk-rock ]


                Sun come up, sun go down
                This ol’ world keeps spinning ‘round
                Seem’s there’s nothin’ really new, under the sun
                Everything we do ’as already been done

                Sing yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah

                Sun go down, sun come up
                Pour me a drink from that wisdom cup
                Time of hate, time of war
                Seems like this path’s been crossed before

                Sing yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah

                Time of love, time of peace
                When is all the killin’ goin’ to cease?
                Seasons come and seasons go
                Seems we’re bound to reap just what we sow

                Sing yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah

                So many days and nights we've cried
                Haven't these solutions already been tried?
                Seem’s there’s nothin’ really new, under the sun
                Everything we do ’as already been done

                Sing yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
                Yeah, yeah, yeah
