Bright Side Of Down

INTRO: C  F  G    C  F  G   C

           F      G           Am
Time takes almost everything
       G                 F      C
Me and time will take my time
        F         G
I look around for things to bring
   F            G               C
To ease the way down the uphill climb


CHORUS:
       F              G     Em
On the bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around


Chorus Lead-Out: F  G    C  F  G   C


              F       G
They say that time is slowed by speed
    Am             G              F       C
But really, that's not the way it seems
          F                 G
Maybe the key is thoughtful words and deeds
   F           G              C
To open up the voices of your dreams


CHORUS:
       F              G     Em
On the bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around


Chorus Lead-Out: F  G    C  F  G   C


            F                 G           Am
There are a few things we can pass along
      G             F       C
Maybe that will be enough
         F               G
Half the distance to the beautiful
F                G            C
With some of the many ways to love


CHORUS:
       F              G     Em
On the bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around


CHORUS:
       F              G     Em
On the bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around


Chorus Lead-Out: F  G    C  F  G   C


            F      G
I've got to live a long, long time
    Am                 G               F    C
For eyes that light up everything they see
                F                G
Can't check out early like those friends of mine
    F          G                C
The faster you go, the less you need


CHORUS:
    F              G     Em
The bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around


CHORUS:
    F              G     Em
The bright side of down
          Am             F
This side of the ground
                 G          C
It's a long way around and around
