The Allman Brothers Band formed in 1969 in Macon, Georgia, United States and blended different strains of Southern Rock related music— Blues, Country, Gospel, Jazz, and more— into a flexible, jam-oriented Rock and Roll style. Reflecting the emergence of the "New South" and setting the style for Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Marshall Tucker Band, and many other bands, the Allman Brothers Band also oddly— or eerily, some would say— had an unusual string of untimely deaths, a pattern similar to other Southern rockers.

[Verse] AEDA When you can't find the light, that got you through the cloudy days, AEDA When the stars ain't shinin' bright, you feel like you've lost you're way, AEDA When those candle lights of home, burn so very far away, AEF#mG Well you got to let your soul shine, just like my daddy used to say.
[Chorus] AE He used to say soulshine, it's better than sunshine, DA It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain. AE Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime, F#mGA Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.
[Verse Two] AE I grew up thinkin' that I had it made, gonna make it on my own. AEDA Life can take the strongest man, make him feel so alone. AEDA Now and then I feel a cold wind, blowin' through my achin' bones, AEF#mG I think back to what my daddy said, he said "Boy, in the darkness before the dawn:"
[Chorus] AE He used to say soulshine, it's better than sunshine, DA It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain. AE Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime, F#mGA Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.
[Bridge] F#mD Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness, DA Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul. C#mD A woman too, God knows, she can feel like this. GE And when your world seems cold, you got to let your spirit take control.

[Chorus] AE He used to say soulshine, it's better than sunshine, DA It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain. AE Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime, F#mGA Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.
