Lyrics

When you’re feel ing (B7)lone ly,

lost and let down,

seems like those (B7)dark skies are (A)fol low ing you a round,

and (F#7)life’s ing that just one big shade of gray,

is like you (F#7)won der if you’ll see the light of (A)day.

it starts to rain.

Be hind the (E)clouds

the (A)sun (A#)is (B7)shin

ing.

Be lieve me, e ven though you can’t quite make it out.

You may not (E)see

the (A)sil (A#)ver (B7)lin

ing, but there’s a big blue sky wait ing right be hind the clouds.

(E)clouds

the (A)sun (A#)is (B7)shin

ing.

Be lieve me, e ven though you can’t quite make it out.

You may not (E)see

the (A)sil (A#)ver (B7)lin

ing, but there’s a big blue sky wait ing right be hind the clouds.

I’ve heard it

Yeah, there’s a (D#dim)big (C#m)blue (B7)sky wait ing right be hind (F7)the clouds.
