One sweet day    Mariah Carey w/BoysIIMen 
    G - Em - F - D
 
      G                  Em        G                     Em
1. Sorry, I never told you all I wanted to say
             G                         Em                       F
    and now it's too late to hold you, 'cause you've flown away,
     D          D7
    so far away.
 
       G                 Em        G                              C
2. Never had I imagined living without your smile
      G                                    Em                       F               D
    feeling and knowing you hear me, it keeps me alive, alive.

Chorus
 
             G                                                         Em
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven,
              G                                                 Em
like so many friends we've lost along the way.
             G                                     Em                          F - D
And I know eventually we'll be together, one sweet da?..y.
                                        G
Eventually we'll sing in (heaven).
 
      G                      Em                   G                                   Em
3. Darling I never showed you, assumed you'd always be there,
          G                                          Em                F
    and I, I took your presence for granted, but I always cared,
               D                          D7
    and I miss the love we shared.
 
+ CHORUS
 
C        B7          Em
    Although the sun will never shine the same,
C                    D                         G
    I'll always look to a brighter day, yeah, yeah.
B7                                Em
    Lord, I know when I lay me down to sleep,
     Am                                     D
    you will always listen as I pray
