| C | Bb | Bb | D |
| Come tomorrow - | Will I be bolder - | Than to | day? |
Now - The trees are almost green | |
But will they still be seen - Where time and tide have been | |
Fallen - Into your passing hands | |
Please don't destroy these lands - Don't make them desert sands | |
Come tomorrow - Will I be older | |
Come tomorrow - May be a soldier | |
Come tomorrow - Will I be bolder - Than today? | |
Soon - I hope that I will find | |
