[Verse]
               F             
When you can't find the light
     Eb                         Bb  
That got you through the cloudy days
                     F             
When the stars ain't shinin' bright
    Eb               Bb           
You feel like you've lost your way
         F                  
When the candlelight of home
Eb                Bb  
Burns so very far away
                         F         
Well you got to let your soul shine
Gm                         Ab 
Just like my daddy used to say


[Chorus]
               Bb       
He used to say soulshine
                 F       
It's better than sunshine
                 Eb        Cm7
It's better than moonshine ■  
Eb                    Bb   Gm7
Damn sure better than rain ■  
Bb                          
■  Hey now people don't mind
                 F            
We all feel this way sometimes
                   Gm         Ab                      Bb 
You gotta let your soul shine shine till the break of day


[Verse]
                     F          
I grew up thinkin' I had it made
      Eb            Bb 
Gonna make it on my own
                  F            
Life can take the strongest man
Eb       Bb           
Make him feel so alone
                       F        
Now sometimes I feel a cold wind
Eb                        Bb   
Blowin' through my achin' bones
                        F         
I think back to what my daddy said
        Gm                   Ab             
He said boy in this darkness before the dawn


[Chorus]
         Bb        
Let your soul shine
                 F       
It's better than sunshine
     Dm             Eb       
It's ■  better than moonshine
                      Bb  
Damn sure better than rain
                Bb        
Yeah now people don't mind
           F                 
We all get this way sometimes
                       Gm         Ab                      Bb 
You've got to let your soul shine shine till the break of day
Gm                     Eb                 
■  Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness
                                        Bb  
Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul
  Dm                          Eb        Cm7  Eb
A woman too God knows she can feel like this ■ 
Ab                                        F                           
And when your world seems cold you got to let your spirit take control
