Silver in the Stubble 
Silver in the Stubble (Sydney Carter) 
(ACBG) Am G Am / Am G Am / Am G Am G Am G / Am G Am 
Early in the Morning, Hear the razor roar, There's silver in the stubble And it wasn't there before.
 For the leaves are getting greener, And spring is on the way; Girls are getting prettier And younger every day. 
Silver in the stubble; Winter in the wood. Fare you well, you wicked world, I'm going to be good. 
Time to think of Heaven; Time to think of Hell. Time to go to church on Sunday, Hark, I hear the bell. 
But if any girl is willing, She only has to say; I'll hang my halo on a shelf Until another day.
