[Intro]: A minorAm

A minorAm                 G+G         E minorEm
We've been waiting, anticipating, change coming our way
A minorAm                   G+G         E minorEm
You're my baby, through the bad lights to the greater days
  FF
I know that something good is waiting just around the corner
      A minorAm             E minorEm
There's a new day dawning, there's a new life for us
 FF                          G+G
Gotta keep on holding on for just a little longer I know

           A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm   G+G
That it's gonna be blue skies for you and I
      FF           A minorAm      G+G
We'll step out of the shadows and walk into the light
           A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm   G+G
Yeah it's gonna be blue skies for you and I
    FF            A minorAm         G+G
But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high
          A minorAm
And the clouds roll by

A minorAm              G+G
I can feel it, it's a comet, fast and fierce and wild
A minorAm           E minorEm G+G         E minorEm
I can see it everytime I look into those eyes
 FF              DmDm
Tell me is it really gonna storm again
     A minorAm       E minorEm    G+G   A minorAm E minorEm
Will the sky turn dark, will the rain begin
  FF             DmDm             G+G
I wanna be with you whenever lightening strikes cause I know

           A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm   G+G
That it's gonna be blue skies for you and I
      FF           A minorAm      G+G
We'll step out of the shadows and walk into the light
           A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm   G+G
Yeah it's gonna be blue skies for you and I
    FF            A minorAm         G+G
But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high
           FF           A minorAm
And the clouds roll by, let the clouds roll by
     G+G
I can't stand the rain for one more day
    FF       G+G
I know we can make it go away
A minorAm               G+G
Can you feel it, like a fever, burning till it breaks

 A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm  G/BG/B
Blue skies for you and I
      FF           A minorAm      G+G
We'll step out of the shadows and walk into the light
           A minorAm  C majorC    A minorAm   G+G
Yeah it's gonna be blue skies for you and I
    FF            A minorAm         G+G
But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high
          A minorAm
And the clouds roll by

       G+G               A minorAm
Blue skies, blue skies (let the clouds roll by)
       G+G               FF
Blue skies, blue skies (let the clouds roll by)
       A minorAm               G+G
Blue skies, blue skies (let the clouds roll by)
                    A minorAm
Blue skies, blue skies (the clouds roll by)

Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue
