cmaj9              fmaj9 cmaj9                    a   a7
I've seen brighter,      I've known brighter days
dm7                dm7-5
lying alone in the shade of a manzanita;
cmaj9             fmaj9 cmaj9                a    a7
it's been sweeter,      bitter sweeter days.
  dm7                           dm7-5
I know it's not for always, but all i can say is
cmaj9                        e7
I've known better days.
    a7          dm7         g          cmaj7
Is summer gone?     Has it been that long?
  fmaj9                           bm7    e7
I guess that's what seasons will bring.
    am7     d            g      cmaj7 cm7
I'm caught again in the autumn wind, 
               dm7      g
but I remember spring.
    cmaj9 Bbmaj9      g11      cmaj9  bmaj9
For I've         seen brighter days,
              cmaj9    Bbmaj9 em9    a
seen lighter places to stay along my way.
    dm7        g        cmaj9 Bbmaj9 f g11
Oh, I've seen brighter days
cmaj9            fmaj9 cmaj9             a     a7
I've seen warmer,      soft and warmer nights
dm7                   dm7                    cmaj9
lying with love by my side in the sycamores
                    fmaj9 cmaj9                    a    a7
there've been finer,      I've seen mighty finer nights
dm7                            dm7-5                   cmaj9
Knowing what's wrong or what's right just don't matter
                               e7
when you're in warmer nights.
     am7   dm7        g        cmaj7
But here I am like a sea blown wind
fmaj9                bm7   e7
under my thunder and rain
am7             d           g    cmaj7   cm7
I'll ride the waves till a sunny day
             dm7    g
comes to me again
    cmaj9 Bbmaj9              cmaj9
for I've        seen brighter days, 
Bbmaj9       cmaj9     Bbmaj9  em9     a
seen lighter places to stay   along my way.  
     dm7       g        cmaj9   Bbmaj9  f  cmaj9
Oh, I've seen brighter days.
