When you can't find a light,             got ya' thru' a cloudy day
Bb5                  F5            Eb5                  Bb5

When the stars ain't shining bright,       you feel like you've lost your way
Bb5                  F5            Eb5                  Bb5

When the candle light at home,             burn so very far away
Bb5                  F5            Eb5                  Bb5

Now you gotta let your soul shine,       just like my Daddy used to say
Bb5                  F5            G(this is minor!)      Ab5

Used to say: soulshine,             is better than sunshine
            Bb5                              F5
Is better than moonshine,             damn sure better than rain
            Eb5                              Bb5
Get up people don't mind,             you all feel this way sometimes
            Bb5                              F5
You gotta let your soul shine,            shine 'till the break of day
                  G5            Ab5                  Bb5

Grew up _ _ _ _ , make it on my own                  // NEED SOME WORK...
Life can make the strongest man, make him feel so alone
Now sometimes I feel a cold wind, blowin' thru' my aching bones
Think 'bout what my Daddy said, he said: boy in this darkness before the dawn

REFRAIN

Let your soul shine,             it's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine,       damn sure better than rain
Get up people don't mind,       you all feel this way sometimes
You gotta let your soul shine,      shine 'till the break of day

Sometimes a man can feel his emptyness
      Gmoll                        Eb5
Like a woman  - - -----  - --- -                   // NEED SOME WORK...

A woman too, god knows, she can feel like this
      D5                              Eb5
- -  when your world seems cold                    // NEED SOME WORK...
      Ab5
You got to let your spirit take control

Talkin' 'bout soul shine,       it's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine,       damn sure better than rain

You gotta let your soul shine,      shine 'till the break of day
