There's a dark and a troubled side of life.
You're right about that.
Though we meet with the darkness and strife,
the sunny side we always believe.
Here we go, [A] one more time.
[C]
[F] [C]
[G]
[Bb] Yeah, that's right.
That was the beginning of it.
That's where we started.
And I was that squeaky little girl
singing those really crazy songs on there.
[C] Keep on the sunny [F] side,
always on the sunny [C] side.
Keep on the sunny side [G] of life.
It [C] will help us every day.
It will [F] brighten our [C] long way.
If [A] you keep on the [Dm] sunny [C] side of life.
I'm happy to see you hang on.
[Bbm] We were there about a year and a half,
something like that.
And then we came back here
and stayed here at the old home place
for maybe [E] another [Bb] year.
And then it got really busy for us.
We went over to Charlotte, North Carolina
because that was about the only
[C] 50,000 watt radio station [Bb] left
that was really perking.
And so [Db] all of our shows had [Bb] been
on these radio stations
until [E] everything got crazier.
So we [Bb] went over there to just [E] sing in person.
And we learned a lot.
[N] One more time, here we go.
You know where to come in now?
Yeah.
Keep on the sunny side.
Yeah, if I'm singing with Daddy,
I thought it'd be good if I came in
on the second line.
However you want to do it, honey.
I'm having a little trouble with him.
Here we go.
Okay.
[A] [G] [C] Keep on the sunny [F] side.
Always on the sunny [C] side.
Keep on the sunny [G] side of life.
It [C] will help us every day.
It [F] will brighten our [C] way.
If we'll keep on the [G] sunny side [C] of life.
There's a dark [F] and troubled [C] side of life.
There's a bright and a sunny [G] side.
[Bb] It was a little different because
we really learned to sing by ourselves,
Mother and Helen and Anita and I.
Mother, I think she knew that that was
about the end of the original party family.
So she left them there
and Aunt Sarah went on back.
[G] One more time, everybody with me.
[A] [Em]
[C] Keep on the sunny side.
[F] Always on the sunny [C] side.
Keep on the sunny [G] side of life.
It will [C] help us every day.
[F] It will brighten [C] our way.
If we'll keep on the sunny [G] [C] side of life.
Well, there's a dark [F] and troubled [C] side of life.
There's a bright and a sunny [G] side.
But if you meet with the darkness [C] unfair,
the [G] sunny side in you, [C] so may it be.
Keep on the sunny side.
[F] Always on the sunny [C] side.
Keep on the [G] sunny side of life.
It [C] will help us every day.
It [F] will brighten our [C] way.

[C]
[G] You know, I doubt if you can realize
[Em] where this [G] album is being cut.
[B] But [A] we're sitting in Mother Maybell's old living [G] room.
Here in Macy Springs, Virginia.
We were born and raised [Em] here.
On [G] this land, my grandma's land there
and on up the mountain.
[B] We had a great time here.
There were wonderful years.
But seems like I remember [Db] some of the songs
they sung over and over.
And I never could get this one out of my head.
It was in this little room here with this fireplace
that they made a fire.
They made a fire, kept us warm over here.
And we had another fireplace on the other side at that time.
But
You're right about that.
Though we meet with the darkness and strife,
the sunny side we always believe.
Here we go, [A] one more time.
