When the sun came up this morning, [E] I took the time to watch it rise,
[A] And as its beauty struck the darkness [E] from the skies,
[A] I thought how small [D] and unimportant [G] all my [Em] troubles seemed to be,
And how lucky another day [E] belongs to me.
[A]
And as the sleepy world around me [E] woke up to greet the day,
[D] All its silent beauty seemed to [E] say,
So [A] what my friend, [D] if all your [Bm] dreams you haven't realized,
Look around you boy, you've got a [E] whole new day to try.
[A]
[D] Today is mine, [F#m] today is [Em] mine,
To do with what [A] I will, today [F#m] is mine,
[Bm] [Em] My own special cup [A] to fill,
To [D] die a little, [G] that I might learn to live,
[Em] To take from life, [E] that I might [A] learn to give,
[D] Today is [A] mine.
[A] Like all men, I curse the present, [E] that seems void of peace of mind,
[A] And race my thoughts beyond tomorrow, [E] and vision their more peace of mind.
But when I view the day [Am] around me, [Bm] I can see the fool I've been,
For today is the only garden [E] we can tend.
[A] Today [D] is mine, [F#m] today is [Em] mine,
To do [A] with what I will, today is [Bm] mine,
[Em] My own special cup to fill,
To [D] die a little, [G] that I might learn to live,
[Em] To take from life, [E] that I [A] might learn to give,
[D] Today is [A] mine.
