Verse 1
G+G       D MajorD              C majorC              G+G
When you can't find the light     That guides you through a cloudy day

G+G           D MajorD             C majorC             G+G
When the stars aren't shining bright  And you feel like you've lost your way

G+G         D MajorD           C majorC      G+G
When those candle lights at home     Burn so very far away

G+G            D MajorD        E minorEm         FF
Well you got to let your soulshine    Just like my daddy used to say


Chorus
FF      G+G
Used to say soulshine

G+G        D MajorD
It's better than sunshine

D MajorD        C majorC
It's better than moonshine

C majorC           G+G
Damn sure better than rain

G+G
Hey now people don't mind

G+G        D MajorD
We all feel this way sometimes

D MajorD          E minorEm
You got to let your soulshine

FF       G+G
Shine till the break of day

Verse 2 (chords same as verse 1)

I grew up thinking that I had it made gonna make it on my own
Life can take the strongest man and make him feel so alone
Now and then I feel a cold wind blowing through my aching bones
I just think back to what my daddy says he said boy in this darkness before the cold


Chorus (chords same as chorus 1)

E MajorE          C majorC
Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness

C majorC                  G+G
Like a woman has robbed his mother's very soul

B minorBm              C majorC
A augmentedA woman too god knows she can feel like this

FF
And when your world seems cold

FF     D MajorD
You got to let your spirit take control


Chorus
