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