Your Brighter Day chords by Vance Gilbert

Capo 2

                    G
Its the ache in your arm
                    C
When you reach high above you
                     Em
Its the crack in your voice
                       D
On a tune you routinely sing
                 G
Its your song of survival
                    C
That at first may be hard to hear
                  Em
But you bless its arrival
                     D
And the peace that it brings

    C             D
The shining of the sun
          G
Is so much sweeter when you have to
C            D             G
Dance around whats in the way
                 Em      C Em D
Of your brighter day

                        G
Its the things that you wished youd said
                     C
That you just had to swallow
                       Em
Now they make you feel hollow
             D
Down to your core
             G
For each opportunity
                    C
Therell be somebody new who needs
               Em
A vacation from sorrow
                             D
Heres your chance to even the score

C            D
Mistrust any fool
            G
Whod just hand it to you
     C              D               G
Run quickly if they smile and they say
                   Em    C Em
Heres your brighter day

C
Your brighter day
Em
When youre intimidated
C
Your brighter day
Em
When you feel old and faded
C
Your brighter day
Em
Go get illuminated
        D
Go on - take it

                   G
Now the truth is a wicked thing
                    C
And it may leave you broken
                Em
To twist in the wind
                 D
Like a shirt on a line
                  G
It will change you forever
                    C
And just when youve had enough
                 Em
And you cry up to heaven
                    D
For what seems your last time

        C      D
May the clouds rearrange
         G
In your stratosphere
     C       D              G
And quietly step out of the way
                Em  C Em C G
