 Well, sometimes  the sun shines on
 Other people's houses  and not mine
 Some days the clouds  paint the sky all gray
 And it takes  away my summertime
 Somehow the sun  keeps shining upon you
 While I struggle  to get mine
 If there's a light  in everybody
 Send out your ray  of sunshine
 I wanna walk  the same roads as everybody else
 Through the trees  and past the gates
 Getting high  on heavenly breezes
 Making new friends along  the way
 I won't  ask much of nobody
 I'm just here  to sing along
 And make  my mistakes look gracious
 And learn some lessons from  my wrongs
 (CHORUS)
 But sometimes the sun shines on
 Other people's houses and not mine
 Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
 And it takes away my summertime
 Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
 While I struggle to get mine
 A little light never hurt nobody
 Send out your ray of sunshine
 Oh, if this  little light of mine
 Combined with yours  today
 How many watts could we luminate?
 How many villages could  we save?
My  umbrella's tired of the weather
Wearing  me down
 Well look  at me now
 (VERSE)
 Well, you should look as good as your outlook
 Would you mind if I took some time?
 To soak up your light, your beautiful light
 You've got a paradise inside
 I get hungry for love and thirsty for life
 And much to full on the pain
 When I look to the sky to help me
 And sometimes it looks like rain
 (CHORUS)
 As the sun shines on
 Other people's houses and not mine
 And the sky paints the clouds in a way
 That it takes away the summertime
 Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
 While I kindly stand by
 If there's a light in everybody
 Send out your ray of sunshine
 You're undeniably warm,  you're cerulean
 You're perfect  in design
 Won't you hang around?
 So the sun,  it can shine on me
 And the clouds,  they can roll  away
 And the sky  can become our possibility
 If there's a light  in everybody
 Send out your ray  of sunshine
 NOTE: The "C D G" pattern that happens quite a bit in the song could be done with the
 chords; I think this is what Jason uses:

Well, s[G]ometimes the sun shines on

Other people's [Cadd9]houses and not mine

Some days the [G]clouds paint the sky all gray

And it [D]takes away my summertime

Somehow the [G]sun keeps shining upon you

While I [Cadd9]struggle to get mine

If there's a [G]light in everyb[D]ody

Send out your [C]ray of [D]sunsh[G]ine     [C]        [D]           [G]

I wanna [G]walk the same roads as everybody else

Through the [Am]trees and past the gates

Getting [C]high on heavenly breezes

Making new [C]friends [D]along the [G]way

I [G]won't ask much of nobody

I'm just [Am]here to sing along

And [C]make my mistakes look gracious

And learn some [C]lessons [D]from my [G]wrongs

(CHORUS)
But sometimes the sun shines on
Other people's houses and not mine
Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
And it takes away my summertime

Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
While I struggle to get mine
A little light never hurt nobody
Send out your ray of sunshine

Oh, if [Em]this little light of mine

Combined with [G]yours today

How many watts could we [C]luminate?

How many villages [G]could we save? [D]
