G                  Am              
Tell me why you're crying my son,  
D                             G          
I know you're frightened like everyone.  
Em                       Am                  
Is it the thunder in the distance you fear?  
B7                C         Am   D 
Will it help if I stay very near   
     G     Gsus4 G 
I am here.     
   
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done,  
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done.  
       D                                
Day is done, (oh when the day is done)  
       G                             
Day is done, (When the day is done)  
           D                             
The day is done (when the day is done),  
           G     Gsus4 G Gsus4 G 
The day is done.         
   
                   Am                
Do you ask why I'm sighing, my son?  
D                      G                  
You shall inherit what mankind has done.  
Em                     Am               
In a world filled with sorrow and woe,  
B7            C           Am D 
If you ask me why this is so   
               G      
I really don't know.  
   
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done,  
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done.  
       D                                
Day is done, (oh when the day is done)  
       G                             
Day is done, (When the day is done)  
           D                             
The day is done (when the day is done),  
           G     Gsus4 G Gsus4 G 
The day is done.         
   
                   Am                
Tell me why you're smiling, my son,  
D                         G               
Is there a secret you can tell everyone?  
Em               Am                         
Do you know more than those that are wise?  
B7                  C            Am     D 
Can you see what we all must dis-guise    
                    G      Gsus4 G 
Through your loving eyes?      
   
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done,  
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done.  
       D                                
Day is done, (oh when the day is done)  
       G                             
Day is done, (When the day is done)

The day is done (oh when the day is done),  
           G                           
The day is done. (oh now you sing it)  
   
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G      
All will be well when the day is done,  
           C               G     
And if you take my hand my son,  
            D                    G     
All will be well when the day is done
