[Verse 1]
F#m7 A
We can tell a hundred stories;
Em Bm
we can speak a million words.
F#m7 A
We can paint a thousand pictures,
Esus4 E
but will our heart be stirred.
F#m7 A
We can often make a difference,
Em Bm
with a kindly word or deed.
A D
But sometimes just a smile
Esus4 E G Bsus4 B
is all we really need.
[Chorus]
E B
Just a smile…
F# G#m
can lift a weary heart.
E B
Just a smile…
F# G#m
can help us make a start.
E B
When you’ve done your best,
F# G#m E
praying you’ll succeed.
B E
Then you will see,
F# Esus4 E
a smile is what we need.
[Verse 2]
F#m7 A
This world is unforgiving,
Em Bm
full of coldness and despair.
F#m7 A
Many hopes are disappointed,
Esus4 E
by a world that doesn’t care.
F#m7 A
And we see it in their faces,
Em Bm
as they pass us on the street.
A D
So we offer a hope and comfort,
Esus4 E G Bsus4 B
to the people that we meet.
[Chorus]
E B
Just a smile…
F# G#m
can lift a weary heart.
E B
Just a smile…
F# G#m
can help us make a start.
E B
When you’ve done your best,
F# G#m E
praying you’ll succeed.
B E
Then you will see,
F# Esus4
a smile is what we need.
[Verse 3]
G#m7 B
At times we feel downhearted,
F#m C#m
when no one seems to care.
G#m7 B
About the hope we offer,
F#sus4 F#
or the message that we bear.
G#m7 B
For some hearts that’s just too hardened,
F#m C#m
to receive the Kingdom seed.
B E
But could it be a friendly smile,
F#sus4 F# A C#sus4 C#
is what they really need.
[Chorus]
F# C#
Just a smile…
G# A#m
can lift a weary heart.
F# C#
Just a smile…
G# A#m
can help us make a start.
F# C#
When you’ve done your best,
G# A#m F#
praying you’ll succeed.
C# F#
Then you will see,
G# F#sus4 C#
a smile is what we need.
