I imagine you know the chords, but here it is anyway... The Whites Keep on the Sunny Side D G D - / - - A - / - - D - / A - D - There's a dark & a troubled side of life Ther's a bright, there's a sunny side, too Tho' we meet with the darkness & strife The sunny side we also may view D - G - / D - A - / D - G - / D A D - Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side Keep on the sunny side of life It will help us ev'ry day, it will brighten all the way If we'll keep on the sunny side of life The storm & its fury broke today Crushing hopes that we cherish so dear Clouds & storms will, in time, pass away The sun again will shine bright & clear Let us greet with the song of hope each day Tho the moment be cloudy or fair Let us trust in our Saviour away Who keepeth everyone in His care Peace, Rustic |
