One, two, [G] three.
[C]
Stop.
[B] [F] On a crisp spring morning, [C] there's [G] not a cloud [Em] in the sky.
[C] [F] And it's got me out here walking [C] and waving to the [G] ladies as [C] they stroll by.
And [Em] I ain't forgot for a moment all the [C] things I need to do.
[F] But [C] when [Em] I see that old sun shining, it makes me think that [C] I can [F] make it too.
[C] Yes, [Db] and all I really [Bbm] want to say is that [Db] the problems come and go, but the sunshine [Bbm] seems to stay.
Just look [F] around.
I think [Bb] we found a [C] lovely day.
[F] Flowers woke up blooming and put on a [C] color show just for me.
I appreciate it.
The shadows dark [F] and gloomy, I told them all [C] to keep the hell away from me.
[G] Because [Em] I don't feel like believing everything I [F] do gonna turn out wrong.
Or [C] when [Em] vibrations I'm receiving say, hold on, brother, [C] just you [F] be strong.
Yes, [Db] and all I really [Bbm] want to say [Fm] is that [Db] the problems come and go, but the [Fm] sunshine [Bbm] seems to stay.
[F] Just look around.
I [Bb] think we found [F] a lovely [C] day.
[Gm]
[Cm] [Gb] Sometimes [Bbm] it rains and [Gm] I [Cm]
[Gb] feel [D] [Gm] kind [Bbm] of strange.
[Db]
[Bbm] [Db] Because it seems like my problems [Bbm] begin without [Gb] the sunshine on which [Db] I [Ab] depend.
[Db] All that make me feel like I need to hear the [Bbm] sun say, hey, [C] just look [F] around.
I think [Bb] we found [D] a [F] lovely day.
I think [Bb] we found [C] a lovely day.
I [Bb] think we [C] found a lovely, lovely.
Don't it [Gm] feel like a [F] lovely day?
