Intro: Gm D7 Cm Gm (2x)

Gm
  Sing the ups
D7  
  Sing the downs
Cm                      Gm
  And the silent people shaking the grounds

(the same)
Sing the faith
Sing the truth
Burning fire in the belly of youth

Sing the progress
And some missteps
While we're making our way

Gm                   D7                    Cm
  Somedays it's so hard to escape the dark cloud
                  Gm 
Hovering over our heads

        A#                 Gm
But I'm not gonna let them paint me blue
     A#                Gm
I'm not gonna let them bend my view
          Dm           Cm  
Not this time, not any time,
          Gm
I'm gonna sing me life
D#7                       
  That's what I'm gonna do
A#  D#7         
     Hey hey hey.
A#    D#7          
    And you should too.
A#  D#7         
     Hey hey hey.
A#  D#7

(same as the first verse)
Sing the bright day
From a long night
And a tunnel giving way to the light

Sing the good deeds
And the fowl plays
And crosses carried we all pay

Face the problem in our system
We can fight this disease

(I know) Somedays it's so hard to escape the dark cloud
Hovering over our heads

 

        A#                 Gm
But I'm not gonna let them paint me blue
     A#                Gm
I'm not gonna let them bend my view
          Dm           Cm  
Not this time, not any time,
          Gm
I'm gonna sing me life
D#7                       
  That's what I'm gonna do
A#  D#7         
     Hey hey hey.
A#    D#7          
    And you should too.
A#  D#7         
     Hey hey hey.
A#  D#7



 

Instrumental: Gm D7 Cm (4x) 

 

        A#                 Gm
But I'm not gonna let them paint me blue
     A#                Gm
I'm not gonna let them bend my view
          Dm           Cm  
Not this time, not any time,
          Gm
I'm gonna sing me life
D#7                       
  That's what I'm gonna do
A#  D#7         
     Hey hey hey.
A#    D#7          
    And you should too.
