(ver. 2)
Hermans Hermits
This Door Swings Both Ways:Herman's Hermits.
#12 in 1966.

INTRO:(Slow)
C#                F#                  Eb
Everyones life is bittersweet, it's a door 
           Ab
that opens wide.
    C#                 F#
And no man can call himself complete,
          Eb                Ab
till he's seen it from both sides.

#1.(Rock tempo)
C#        F#                C#           F#
This door swings both ways, it's marked 'In and Out.'
C#               F#              Eb         
Some days you'll want to cry and some days you 
     Ab
will shout.
C#        F#                C#      F#
This door swings both ways, it goes back and forth.
C#         F#                   Eb                 C#
In comes a southern breeze or a cold wind from the north.

#2.
C#        F#                C#      F#
This door swings both ways, lets in joy and pain.
C#           F#               Eb               Ab
In comes the morning sun, and then the evening rain.
C#        F#                C#      F#
This door swings both ways, lets in dark and light.
C#            F#                  Ab              C#
Every day you make the choice, to let in wrong or right.

CHORUS:
             Ab                                 C#
When shadows fall you must prepare yourself for sunshine.
    Ab                                    F#
For everything there is an end, and so my friend...you
        Ab
must be brave.

(INTERLUDE:)

#3.
C#        F#                C#        F#
This door swings both ways, which one will it be?
C#           F#               Eb       Ab
Will we live in happiness, or dwell in misery?
C#        F#                C#      F#
This door swings both ways, lets in earth and sky.
C#               F#               Ab              C#
Make the most of livin' if you're not prepared to die.
C#               F#               Ab              C#
Make the most of livin' if you're not prepared to die.

CHORUS:
             Ab                                 C#
When shadows fall you must prepare yourself for sunshine.
    Ab                                    F#
For everything there is an end, and so my friend...you
        Ab
must be brave.

Make the most of livin' if you're not prepared to die.
