The Shadow Proves The Sunshine
Standard tuning (E A D G B E)
VERSE 1-
E         B               C#     B
Sunshine, won't you be my mother
A         B                C#    B
Sunshine, come and help me sing
E            B                C#      B
My heart is darker than these oceans
A           B        C#     B
My heart is frozen underneath

PRE CHORUS-
E                              B
We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight,
C#              B
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
A          B           
The shadow proves the sunshine
A          B           
The shadow proves the sunshine

E                 B
Two scared little runaways
C#                        B
Hold fast to the break of daylight when
A          B           
The shadow proves the sunshine
A          B           
The shadow proves the sunshine

CHORUS-
E        B           C#           B
Oh Lord, why did you forsake me?
A        B            C#        B
Oh Lord, don't be far away…away
E            B         C#        B
Storm clouds gathering beside me
A                  B              C#  B 
Please Lord, don't look the other way

E B  C#     B
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
