       A/D           D                C/F 
Now if all my golden moments could be rolled into one 
           D                   A/D      C/D 
they would shine just like the sun on a summer day 
D   G     Em7    A7sus4 A#?7    Bm              C/D 
And after it was over    we could have it back again 
D    G      Em7    A7sus4 A#?7     Bm               D/E E      D/E E 
with credit to the editor        for striking out the rain, very clean 
    G      Em7    A7sus4 A#?7          Bm              C9 
And all it really needed         was the proper point of view 
C/F                     A/D   C/F                    C/D 
No one's gonna bring me down. No one's gonna stop me now 
       A/D           D             C/F 
Now I gathered up my sorrows and I sold them all for gold 
      D               A/D        C/D                  D 
and I gathered up the gold and I threw it all away 
D  G        Em7   A7sus4 A#?7   Bm              C/D D 
It all went for a good time and a song, come on 
D    G      Em7    A7sus4 A#?7     Bm             D/E E      D/E E 
But laughter was like music;  it did float my soul along for a while 
    G      Em7    A7sus4 A#?7          Bm              C9 
And all it really needed was the proper point of view 
C/F                     A/D   C/F                    C/D 
No one's gonna reach me here. No one's gonna know I'm gone 
         A/D             D           C/F 
You may think I might be crazy and I guess you might be right 
      D              A/D           C/D 
but I know the way I feel today is out of sight 
D G      Em7        A7sus4 A#?7    Bm              C/D D 
I do not trust your senses        to remember your name 
    G      Em7     A7sus4 A#?7            Bm              D/E E  D/E E 
Without corrective lenses        things are never twice the same 
    G      Em7    A7sus4 A#?7          Bm              C9 
And all it really needed was the proper point of view 
C/F                     A/D   C/F                    A/D 
No one's gonna bring me down. No one's gonna stop me now. 
C/F                     A/D   C/F                    A/D 
No one's gonna reach me here. No one's gonna know I'm gone. 
C/F A/D C/F A/D [repeat and fade]
