Am F C C
[Verse 1]
Am F C
I'm gonna let the sunshine in today,
Am F C
I'm trying to make this darkness go away.
Am F C
I'll paint with colors and I'll sing until my bones give out,
Am F C
I'm gonna let the sunshine in today.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm G Am
And I will leave my windows open so that I can hear
Dm G Am*
the sound of people talking and the wind blowing in the trees.
[Chorus]
F C G
Oh, oh, I will open up my eyes so I can see the light,
F C G
oh, oh, and I'll try to spread my wings so I can fly.
F
Oh, oh, and the darkness starts to fade,
C G
feels like things are gonna go my way,
Dm G***
I'm gonna let the sunshine in today.
[Verse 2]
Am F C
I'm gonna let the past be filled with smoke (ooh-oh, ooh-ooh),
Am F C
and I will try to fix what has been broken.
Am F
And take this weight off my shoulders 'cause I know
C G
yesterday ain't coming back (mmm-mmm),
Dm F C C
I'm gonna let the past stay in the coal.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm G Am
I will listen to the ocean, let it's onside words,
C F G Am*
get spoken and I'll let my mind be carried by the waves.
[Chorus]
F C G
Oh, oh, I will open up my eyes so I can see the light,
F C G
oh, oh, and I'll try to spread my wings so I can fly.
F
Oh, oh, and the darkness starts to fade,
C G
feels like things are gonna go my way,
Dm G
I'm gonna let the sunshine in today.

Oh, oh, I will open up my eyes so I can see the light,
