Standard (EADGBE)

Intro/Chorus-

 Well sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,

 And the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime,

 And somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I struggle to get by,

 If there’s a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.

Verse 1

 I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else through

 the trees and past the gates.

 I’m getting high on heavenly breezes

 and making new friends along the way.

I won’t ask much of nobody, I’m just here to sing-a-long,

 And make my mistakes look gracious

 and learn some lessons from my wrongs.

Chorus

 But sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,

 While the clouds paint the sky all gray it takes away the summertime,

 Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you, while I struggle to get by,

 If there’s a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine.

Bridge

 Ohh if this little light of mine combined with yours today.

 How many watts could we luminate? How many villages could we save?

 If my umbrella is tired of the weather wearing me down,

 Well look at me now.

Break

Verse 2

 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 got a paradise inside.

 I get hungry for love and thirsty for life,

 but much too full on the pain,

 Cause when I look to the sky to help me

 it most always looks like rain.

Chorus

 Sometimes the sun shines on other peoples houses and not mine,

 While the clouds paint the sky in a way that takes away my summertime.

 Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you while I kindly stand by,

 A little light never hurt nobody so send down your ray of sunshine.

Chorus/Break-

Hum over the chorus chords here.

Verse 3

 You’re undeniably warm, cerulean, your perfect in design,

 I hope you hang around

 So the sun it can shine on me,

 And the clouds they can roll away.

 And the sky can become our possibility,

 If theres a light in everybody send down your ray of sunshine.
