[Chorus] G Well, sometimes the sun shines on Cadd9 Other people's houses and not mine G Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray D And it takes away my summertime G Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you Cadd9 While I struggle to get mine GD If there's a light in everybody CDGCDG Send out your ray of sunshine
[Verse] G I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else Am Through the trees and past the gates C Getting high on heavenly breezes CDG Making new friends along the way G I won't ask much of nobody Am I'm just here to sing along C And make my mistakes look gracious CDG And learn some lessons from my wrongs
[Chorus] But sometimes the sun shines on Other people's houses and not mine Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray And it takes away my summertime Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you While I struggle to get mine A little light never hurt nobody Send out your ray of sunshine
[Bridge] Em Oh, if this little light of mine G Combined with yours today C How many watts could we luminate? GD How many villages could we save? Em My umbrella's tired of the weather G Wearing me down CCm Well look at me now
[Interlude] GCadd9AmCDG
[Verse] Well, you should look as good as your outlook Would you mind if I took some time? To soak up your light, your beautiful light You've got a paradise inside I get hungry for love and thirsty for life And much to full on the pain When I look to the sky to help me And sometimes it looks like rain
[Chorus] As the sun shines on Other people's houses and not mine And the sky paints the clouds in a way That it takes away the summertime Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you While I kindly stand by If there's a light in everybody Send out your ray of sunshine
[Outro] G You're undeniably warm, you're cerulean AmC You're perfect in design Won't you hang around? GCadd9 So the sun, it can shine on me GD And the clouds, they can roll away GCadd9 And the sky can become our possibility GD If there's a light in everybody CDG Send out your ray of sunshine
