Emmet Miller - Take Your Tomorrow
Hi,Given that surprisingly there weren't any lyrics available online for this song, I decided to try transcribing it myself.
The lyrics are very simple but I'm a bit of a perfectionist and so I would like to ask for your kind help and maybe even challenge you a bit.
This is an oldie as can be, but it's charming nevertheless.

2. The first sentence he says is a complete mystery to me, so I didn't even attempt at it.
3. BTW if you don't know the song, or this magnificent artist, you're very welcome. He's a real treat.
4. The Lyrics I transcribed:
Emmet Miller - Take Your Tomorrow
"Dog gone ??? you're killing me.."
Why should I wait for happiness?
I've grown impatient more or less
I cannot reach somehow
Show me that bluebird now
Take your tomorrow and give me today
For your tomorrow is too far away
At every dawning I've waited in rain
I find each morning brings only rain
How can I borrow tomorrow today
Without around me all heavy and grey?
What tomorrow may bring don't mean a thing
That's why I say
Take your tomorrow
And give me today
Take your tomorrow
And give me today
'Cause your tomorrow is too far away
At every dawning
I've waited in rain
I find each morning brings only rain
How can I borrow tomorrow today
Without around me all heavy and grey? Oh lord!
What tomorrow may bring don't mean a thing
That's why I say
Take your tomorrow
And give me today. Oh lord!
Thanks a lot, and hope you first and foremost enjoy this
