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