The Shadow Proves The Sunshine
Standard tuning (E A D G B E)
VERSE 1-
Sunshine, won't you be my mother
Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath
PRE CHORUS-
We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight,
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Two scared little runaways
Hold fast to the break of daylight when
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
CHORUS-
Oh Lord, why did you forsake me?
Oh Lord, don't be far away…away
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please Lord, don't look the other way
OUTRO-
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
