[Intro 1]
[F][Dm][F][C][F][C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
I've seen the rain pouring [F]down
[C][Dm]
[G]The sky was grey with a
speck of [C]blue there
Peaked through a hole in
[F]the clouds[C]
[Gsus4]The sun was screa[G]ming,
[Gsus4]hey, you there[F][C]
As you ramble through
your [F]sorrows[C][F]
[Gsus4]Say as if everything is wrong[C]
I'm living in yesterday's [F]tomorrow
[Gsus4]I know something's
helping me [F]along
[C]home. [F]I'l[G]l take a mel[C]ody and sin[F]g what I can
[G]do about it. I'll take a [C]symphony [F]and [G]feel
I [C]heard you talking about your [F]troubles
[Gsus4]Well, everybody got troubles,
[F]too[C][Am]
[C]Well, you can make a mess like
[F]Bubba
[Gsus4]Once you know just what[F] to d[C]o
[F]All you got [G]to do is just
take a [C]mellow deep
And [F]see what you can [G]do about it
Just take a [C]simple deep, deep, [F]deep
And feel brand [G]new about it
Hey, [Am]hey, I understand
[Em]Why the [Am]old fisherman sail[Em]in' on,[F]
sailin' on, sailin' [Em]on?[Am]

[Verse 2]
For [G]someday, [C]ooh[G],
someday [F]you'll be gone
[C][Am]

[Verse 3]
[C]Well, I've been called a
[F]dreamer[Gsus4]
Dreams that never will [F]come

[Verse 4]
true, [C]y '[Am]all
[C]Well, I've been called so many
[F]things [C]before[Dm]
[Gsus4]I'll tell you what I'm gonna do[F][C]
Guess [G]what I'm gonna do
I'll take a [C]melody and [F]sing
What I can [G]do about it
I'll take a [C]sip of tea
[F]An d feel brand [G]-new about it
[C]Shine on, keep on shining on
[F]Shine on, keep on shining on
[G]Shine on, well, well, well
Why [F]don't you [C]shine on
Keep on shinin', don't [F]shine on
Keep on shinin', don't [G]shine on

[Outro 1]
