(intro/chorus)
A#D#add9
Well sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
A#F
And the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime,
A#D#add9
And somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I struggle to get by,
A#FD#FA#D#FA#
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(verse 1)
A#
I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else through
CmD/D#
the trees and past the gates.
D#
I'm getting high on heavenly breezes
D#FA#
and making new friends along the way.
A#CmD/D#
I won't ask much of nobody, I'm just here to sing-a-long,
D#
And make my mistakes look gracious
D#FA#
and learn some lessons from my wrongs.
(chorus)
A#D#add9
But sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
A#F
While the clouds paint the sky all gray it takes away the summertime,
A#D#add9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you, while I struggle to get by,
A#FD#FA#D#FA#
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(bridge)
GmA#
Ohh if this little light of mine combined with yours today.
D#A#F
How many watts could we luminate? How many villages could we save?
GmA#
If my umbrella is tired of the weather wearing me down,
D#D#m
Well look at me now.
(break) A#D#D/D#CmD#FA#
(verse 2)
A#
Well you should look as good as your outlook
CmD/D#
would you mind if I took some time,
D#
To soak up your light your beautiful light
D#FA#
you got a paradise inside.
A#
I get hungry for love and thirsty for life,
CmD/D#
but much too full on the pain,
D#
Cause when I look to the sky to help me
D#FA#
it most always looks like rain.
(chorus)
A#D#add9
Sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
A#F
While the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime.
A#D#add9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I kindly stand by,
A#FD#FA#
C little light never hurt nobody so send down your ray of sunshine.
(chorus/break)
Hum over the chorus chords here.
(verse 3)
A#CmD/D#
You're undeniably warm, cerulean, your perfect in design,
D#F
I hope you hang around…
A#D#add9
So the sun it can shine on me,
A#F
And the clouds they can roll away.
A#D#add9
And the sky can become our possibility,
A#FD#FA#
If theres a light in everybody send down your ray of sunshine.
