Where's the daytime go when I'm [A] asleep at night?
To the other side of the world, they're all in the [G] light.
How do they [E] sleep at all if [G] they've got sunshine in their eyes?
[D] They [C] don't.
They go [G] to bed about the time you rise.
[C]
If they sleep while I'm [G] awake, when do we talk to them?
[C]
What time do we eat?
[E] And how do we know when?
If today here is tomorrow [A] there, can that be so?

_ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ Were you as big as you are now [Dm] when I was born?
[G] _ [Bm] I've been this big [D] a long time.
[Am] That's why my face [G] is worn.
Yeah, but were you ever little?
[D] _ And if [Dm] so, where was I?
[D] Yes, I was, but you aren't anywhere or [G] anyway.
_ [C]
How could I be nowhere [G] if I'm here today?
[C] Nothing is just nothing.
[A] So who showed me [D] the way?
And [E] if something comes from nothing, then [A] what makes it grow?
_ [Bm] _
_ [D] I [G] don't know.
_ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ Who's got all the answers?
[A] If it isn't you.
_ No one's got them all, though some will say they do. _
If they try to fool me, then what should I say?
If you're just polite, they'll usually go away.
_ [C]
What's the dumbest question [G] that ever there could be?
[C] The dumb ones are the ones [A] that you [D] never ask of me.
And the wisest answer's one you learned a long time ago.
[Bm]
I [D] _ [G] don't know.
_ [C] Yeah, the wisest answer's one you learned a [G] long time ago.
[D] _
_ I [G] don't know. _ _ _
