(intro/chorus)
F#Badd9
Well sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
F#C#
And the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime,
F#Badd9
And somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I struggle to get by,
F#C#BC#F#BC#F#
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(verse 1)
F#
I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else through
G#mA#/B
the trees and past the gates.
B
I'm getting high on heavenly breezes
BC#F#
and making new friends along the way.
F#G#mA#/B
I won't ask much of nobody, I'm just here to sing-a-long,
B
And make my mistakes look gracious
BC#F#
and learn some lessons from my wrongs.
(chorus)
F#Badd9
But sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
F#C#
While the clouds paint the sky all gray it takes away the summertime,
F#Badd9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you, while I struggle to get by,
F#C#BC#F#BC#F#
If there's a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.
(bridge)
D#mF#
Ohh if this little light of mine combined with yours today.
BF#C#
How many watts could we luminate? How many villages could we save?
D#mF#
If my umbrella is tired of the weather wearing me down,
BBm
Well look at me now.
(break) F#BA#/BG#mBC#F#
(verse 2)
F#
Well you should look as good as your outlook
G#mA#/B
would you mind if I took some time,
B
To soak up your light your beautiful light
BC#F#
you got a paradise inside.
F#
I get hungry for love and thirsty for life,
G#mA#/B
but much too full on the pain,
B
Cause when I look to the sky to help me
BC#F#
it most always looks like rain.
(chorus)
F#Badd9
Sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,
F#C#
While the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime.
F#Badd9
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I kindly stand by,
F#C#BC#F#
G# little light never hurt nobody so send down your ray of sunshine.
(chorus/break)
Hum over the chorus chords here.
(verse 3)
F#G#mA#/B
You're undeniably warm, cerulean, your perfect in design,
BC#
I hope you hang around…
F#Badd9
So the sun it can shine on me,
F#C#
And the clouds they can roll away.
F#Badd9
And the sky can become our possibility,
F#C#BC#F#
If theres a light in everybody send down your ray of sunshine.
