Verse 1

Em G C9
If I may be so bold could I just say something
G D Cadd9
Come and make me my day
Em G C9
The clouds around your soul don't gather there for nothing
G D Cadd9
But I can chase them all away

Why'd you need a reason for to feel happy
Or be shining for the rest of the world
Give me just a smile and would you make it snappy
Get your shit together girl
