There’s a (C)dark and a (F)trou bled side of (C)life,

but there’s a bright and a sun ny side (G)too.

the Though you (G7)meet with the dark ness and (C)strife,

the (G7)sun ny side you al so may (C)view.

Keep on the sun ny side, (F)al ways on the (C)sun ny side.

Keep on the sun ny side of (G)life.

It will (C)help us ev ’ry day, it will (F)bright en all the (C)way if we’ll (F)keep on the (G7sus)sun ny side of (C)life.

Though the (C)storm and its (F)fur ies rage to (C)day,

but crush ing hope that we cher ish so (G)dear,

and cloud and (G7)storm will in time pass a (C)way

and (G7)sun a gain will shine bright and (C)clear.

Keep on the sun ny side, (F)al ways on the (C)sun ny side.

Keep on the sun ny side of (G)life.

It will (C)help us ev ’ry day, it will (F)bright en all the (C)way if we’ll (F)keep on the (G7sus)sun ny side of (C)life.

(C)life.
