Brighter Days
by JJ Grey and Mofro

F          C              G            F       C             G
Don't stop even for the right thing   does it matter what I say? 
F           C              G                                         F
My whole world was by that river flowin' north to meet the sea each day
        C            G
I don't want to move away


F           C                     G           F         C                  G
You look at me and ya say "what's wrong boy?" What else do you want me to say?  
F         C                 G                                      F
I don't want to leave tomorrow  been and gone but I belong here now 
         C                       G
Your big world can wait another day 


Chorus
F        C                   G
Brighter days where did they go?  
Brighter days where did they go?
Brighter days where did they go?
Brighter days where did they go?

F         C                G
I am hopeful for where I'm goin' 
F         C         G     F         C               G
but I belong in the South That was where I's born a po' boy 
                                    F              C             G
livin' life like there's no end in sight  Even so I've done without


F        C                     G          
Brighter days where did they go?      Play 4x Then

G
Boy you about to hit the bottom
F        C                     G

        F                C                                 G
I'll be alone I feel I'm movin' where  To a land you never saw 
                                       F            C
and I see you 'bout to hit the bottom  Lord help me move away
     G
to a land you never saw  and I've seen
F        C                     G
Brighter days where did they go?
F        C                     G

F        C                     G
Brighter days where did they go?
