(intro/chorus)
BEadd9
Well sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
BF#
And the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime,
BEadd9
And somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I struggle to get by,
BF#EF#BEF#B
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(verse 1)
B
I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else through
C#mD#/E
the trees and past the gates.
E
I'm getting high on heavenly breezes
EF#B
and making new friends along the way.
BC#mD#/E
I won't ask much of nobody, I'm just here to sing-a-long,
E
And make my mistakes look gracious
EF#B
and learn some lessons from my wrongs.
(chorus)
BEadd9
But sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
BF#
While the clouds paint the sky all gray it takes away the summertime,
BEadd9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you, while I struggle to get by,
BF#EF#BEF#B
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(bridge)
G#mB
Ohh if this little light of mine combined with yours today.
EBF#
How many watts could we luminate? How many villages could we save?
G#mB
If my umbrella is tired of the weather wearing me down,
EEm
Well look at me now.
(break) BED#/EC#mEF#B
(verse 2)
B
Well you should look as good as your outlook
C#mD#/E
would you mind if I took some time,
E
To soak up your light your beautiful light
EF#B
you got a paradise inside.
B
I get hungry for love and thirsty for life,
C#mD#/E
but much too full on the pain,
E
Cause when I look to the sky to help me
EF#B
it most always looks like rain.
(chorus)
BEadd9
Sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
BF#
While the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime.
BEadd9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I kindly stand by,
BF#EF#B
C# little light never hurt nobody so send down your ray of sunshine.
(chorus/break)
Hum over the chorus chords here.
(verse 3)
BC#mD#/E
You're undeniably warm, cerulean, your perfect in design,
EF#
I hope you hang around…
BEadd9
So the sun it can shine on me,
BF#
And the clouds they can roll away.
BEadd9
And the sky can become our possibility,
BF#EF#B
If theres a light in everybody send down your ray of sunshine.
