"Enter The Young"
(Terry Kirkman)
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
This song was the group's selection for the follow-up single to "Along
Comes Mary". However, the regional breakout of "Cherish" in the midwest
changed that choice. The version for the "HITS" album was re-cut [AWR:
I know - it blows dead bears] and not from the first album. This could
have been the theme song for the 60's youth movement.
Intro:
[guitar, doubled with bass and glockenspiel, 2X]:

D C [as above]
Here they come
Here they come 
Verse 1:
(Here they come, yeah)
Well, some are walkin', some are ridin'
(Here they come, yeah)
And some are flyin', some just glidin'
Released after years of being kept in hidin'
They're climbin' up the ladder rung by rung
G C Bm A [electric piano]
Chorus:
[A G Bb] D [single notes; bass doubled w/bells]
Enter the young (yeah)
Now they've learned to think
Enter the young (yeah)
More than you think they think
Not only learned to think but to care
Not only learned to think but to dare
[1]: [A G Bb] D C [single notes; bass doubled w/bells]

[2]: [A G Bb] D CaddD [single notes; bass doubled w/bells]
Enter the young [to instrumental]

/ / / / / / / / [to coda]
Verse 2:
(C) D
Yeah, here they come
Well, some with questions, some decisions
(Here they come)
And some with facts and some with visions
Of a place to multiply without the use of divisions
To win a prize that no-one's ever won 

repeat chorus

Instrumental:
[N.C.] (G)
Enter the young

Bridge:
(Here they come, yeah)
Well, some are laughin', some are cryin'
(Here they come, yeah)
[fuzz guitar sustains open D next three lines]
And some are doin', some are tryin'
Some are sellin', some are buyin'
Some are livin', some are dyin'
But demanding recognition one by one 

repeat chorus

Coda:
Enter the young, yeah (here they come)
Enter the young, yeah (enter the young)
Enter the young, yeah (here they come)
Enter the young, yeah (here they come)
Enter the young
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
