This Door Swings Both Ways:Herman's Hermits.
#12 in '66.
INTRO:(Slow)
G                 C                   A
Everyones life is bittersweet, it's a door 
           D
that opens wide.
    G                  C
And no man can call himself complete,
          A                 D
till he's seen it from both sides.

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

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

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

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

CHORUS:
REPEAT#3.

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
