Positivity Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A D A D

ASome people ask me why always on the bright side

DWhen there's so much going on down the other side

AIt's like I live in a bubble with no trouble

 And prDoblems don't exist

AI chuckle and tell them that ain't the case at all

DIt goes way back to the time when I was very small

ANot in mind but size and age my papDa use to say

EYou can always look at the negative

E7MBut you should always live in the positive

E7So I try everyE6day to live that Eway

AYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yDeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Some people live in what was and what they could have been

As opposed to living in a what is and how much they can

And be the first to complain about nothing in life going their way

The attitude is “that I can't do nothing ‘bout”

And very happy with just breathing in and out

The ones that when you say “lets go make a difference”

They'll say “naw that's OK”

So I don't waste time on the trip side

'Cause I do know the real on the flipside

And I'm crystal clear everyday that's why I say, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

AWhen I see the morning D

AAnd the sun is smiling down upDon me

AI joy in the blessing D

AThat still the ground is not abDove me

 And for the peEople E7M

 That I can trE7uly say doE6 love me, I fEeel

APositivity, ‘cause that's what lDife's meant to be

APositivity, ‘cause this day did Dnot have to be

C A D A D

Some ask me why I'm such an optimist

When it's more fashionable be a pessimist

From what’s in seventy-five percent of what we read, hear and view

Well I use to have a friend named Minnie Riperton

Who use to always say when she was living

“Like fine wine I like seeing the glass of life as half full than half empty”

I'm saying sometimes life can't be rough

But never to the point of me saying I've had enough

Long as my heart beats I ain’t giving up

That's why I say everyday

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

When people ask me as an African American

What do I see for tomorrow in the human plan?

Is it possible for all the people of the world to co-exist?

I say unity is only as big as our vision

And if its narrow, try to expand beyond the horizon

But true leaders must guide us through the ills of society

That stands in our way

So if the road is to harmony, be with the call

But if its about discord, don't take the ride at all

’Cause the world vision I see is the one-we for everybody

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

When I see the morning

And the sun is smiling down upon me

Just joy in the blessing

That still the ground is not above me

And for the people

That you can truly say do love you, do feel

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life's meant to be

Positivity, and that’s the energy the world needs

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life means to me

Positivity, ‘cause this day did not have to be

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life's meant to be

Positivity, ‘cause that’s the energy the world needs

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life's meant to be

Positivity, and this day did not have to be

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life means to me

Positivity, and that’s the energy the world needs

Positivity, ‘cause that's what life's meant to be

Positivity, and that’s the energy the world needs

Chords - EADGBE( I recommend you to play the chords the way I've written them below,

because the part with the E Emaj7 E7 E6... is going to sound better in my opinion)

Have fun with it and stay positive ;)
