[Intro]
Am C G Am Am Em Am
[Verse 1]
Am C G Am
We drift along down rivers
Am Em Am
Past the towns where we were born
Am C G Am
Past broken smokestack factories
Am Em Am
graveyards of lost loved ones
Dm Am
We cast our dreams on waters dark
C G Am
We watch them drift away
Dm Am
We turn our eyes heavenward
C G Am
But we feel no need to pray
[Chorus]
F6/9 Am
It's that day upon day
G Am
Trial upon trial
F6/9 Am
Wished upon walked upon
G F
Smile we smile each day
N.C.
It's gonna chase this dark away
[Instrumental]

Am Em Am
[Verse 2]
Am C G Am
This life is short and aren't we deviled
Am Em Am
by all that we've become
Am C G Am
The inventory of our sins
Am Em Am
has struck us deaf and dumb
Dm Am
The stories we once lived to tell
C G Am
Have long since faded gray
Dm Am
And know not of heavens grace
C G Am
What piper must we pay
[Chorus]
F6/9 Am
It's that day upon day
G Am
Trial upon trial
F6/9 Am
Wished upon walked upon
G F
Smile we smile each day
N.C.
It's gonna chase this dark away
[Interlude]
Am C G Am Am Em Am
Chase the dark away

[Verse 3]
Am C G Am
The fallen leaves might tell a tale
Am Em Am
Of harder times to come
Am C G Am
But let us not surrender to
Am Em Am
Our fears and turn to run
Dm Am
Our dreams will rise up above this earth
C G Am
To mingle with the stars
Dm Am
Then return as healing summer rain
C G Am
A balm to these ancient scars
[Chorus]
F6/9 Am
It's that day upon day
G Am
Trial upon trial
F6/9 Am
Wished upon walked upon
G F
Smile we smile each day
G F
Yeah that smile we smile each day
G F
Oh that smile we smile each day
N.C.
Gonna chase this dark away
