Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (P-2)

First verse, single strum on each chord

Some [Am] things in life are [D7] bad, they can [G] really make you [Em] mad Other [Am] things just make you [D7] swear and [G] curse [Em]

When you’re [Am] chewing on life’s [D7] gristle Don’t [G] grumble give a [Em] whistle And [A7] this’ll help things turn out for the [D7] best

And [G] always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] [G] Always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] If [Am] life seems jolly [D7] rotten, there’s [G] something you’ve [Em] forgotten And [Am] that’s to laugh and [D7] smile and dance and [G] sing [Em] When you’re [Am] feeling in the [D7] dumps, [G] don’t be silly [Em] chumps Just [A7] purse your lips and whistle, that’s the [D7] thing

And [G] always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] Come on, [G] Always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] For [Am] life is quite [D7] absurd and [G] death’s the final [Em] word You must [Am] always face the [D7] curtain with a [G] bow

[Em] For-[Am]-get about your [D7] sin, give the [G] audience a [Em] grin En-[A7]-joy it – it’s your last chance any-[D7]-how.

So [G] always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] death [Em] [Am] [D7] [G] Just [Em] before you [Am] draw your [D7] terminal [G] breath [Em] [Am] [D7] [Am] Life’s a piece of [D7] shit [G] when you look at [Em] it [Am] Life’s a laugh and [D7] death’s a joke it’s [G] true [Em] You’ll [Am] see it’s all a [D7] show Keep ‘em [G] laughing as you [Em] go Just [A7] remember that the last laugh is on [D7] you

And [G] always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7]

[G] Always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] (Come on guys, cheer up) ….Getting quieter…

[G] Always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7] [G] Always [Em] look on the [Am] bright [D7] side of [G] life [Em] [Am] [D7]

An [D] engineers could see him sitting in the shade

[A] strummin’ to the rhythm that the drivers made [E7] People passing by… they would stop and say

Oh [A] my but that little country boy can play. Go…o…

Chorus

His [A] mother told him “someday you will be a man”

And you will be the leader of a big ole’ band

[D] Many, many people come from miles around to [A] hear your UKULELE till the sun go down

Sound of Silence (O-20)

[Am]Hello darkness, my old [G]friend, I've come to talk with you [Am]again, Because a vision soft[F]ly creep[C]ing, Left it's seeds while I [F]was slee[C]ping, And the [F]vision that was planted in my [C]brain Still re[Am]mains Within the [G]sound of [Am]silence. [STOP]

In restless dreams I walked a[G]lone Narrow streets of cobble[Am]stone, 'neath the halo of [F]a street [C]lamp, I turned my collar to the [F]cold and [C]damp

When my [F]eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon [C]light That split the [Am]night And touched the [G]sound of [Am]silence. [STOP]

And in the naked light I [G]saw

Ten thousand people, maybe [Am]more. People talking with[F]out spea[C]king, People hearing with[F]out liste[C]ning, People writing [F]songs that voices never [C]share And no one [Am]dare Disturb the [G]sound of [Am]silence. [STOP]

Fools said i, you do not [G]know Silence like a cancer [Am]grows. Hear my words that I [F]might teach [C]you, Take my arms that I [F]might reach [C]you. But my [F]words like silent raindrops [C]fell, And echoed In the [G]wells of [Am]silence

And the people bowed and [G]prayed To the neon God they [Am]made. And the sign flashed out [F]it's war[C]ning, In the words that it w[F]as for[C]ming. And the sign said, the [F]words of the prophets Are [Am]written on the subway [C]walls And tenement [C]halls. And whisper'd in the [G]sounds of [Am]silence.

And I [Dm] won’t be sur[F]prised if it’s a [G7] dream [C] Everything I [G] want the [F] world to [C] be

Is now [Em] comin’ true e[Dm]specia[G]lly for [C] me [G7] And the [F] reason is [G] clear, it’s be [Em]cause you are [A7] near You’re the [Dm] nearest thing to [F] Heaven that I’ve [G7] seen

CHORUS [STOP] I'm on the [C] top of the world lookin’ [F] down on creation

And the [C] only explan[Dm]ation [G] I can [C] find [C7] Is the [F] love that I’ve [G7] found ever [C] since you’ve been a-[F]round Your love’s [C] put me at the [Dm] top [G] of the [C] world

[C] Something in the [G] wind has [F] learned my [C] name And it’s [Em] tellin’ me that [Dm] things are [G] not the [C] same In the [F] leaves on the [G] trees and the [Em] touch of the [A7] breeze

There’s a [Dm] pleasin’ sense of [F] happiness for [G7] me [C] There is only [G] one wish [F] on my [C] mind

When this [Em] day is through I [Dm] hope that I will [C] find That to-[F]morrow will [G] be just the [Em] same for you and [A7] me All I [Dm] need will be [F] mine if you are [G7] here
