The Bright Side

    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes
A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'
    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie
A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'
E
You are a busy bee. You are a busy bee!


[Verse]
D  A      D            A
Sunshine, sitting on a pavement crack
D            A
Everyone was staring back
    G
But you didn't mind
D  A      D               A
Sunshine, futile were our defenses
D                  A
Backwards ran your sentences
  G
Until reeled the mind


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                   G
Next what's fear and silence in
Bm            F#m
Wait just all well then
Bm          G
Upside-down everything
Bm           E
Turning done you're when


[Chorus]
    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes
A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'
    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie
A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'
E
You are a busy bee. You are a busy bee!


[Verse]
D    A     D                 A
Back then, fighting with the permanent
D                   A
Pushing through the sediment
     G
Till we lost the trail
D    A     D                    A
Back then, those days felt like house arrest
D              A
Half-awake and self-possessed
   G
We thought we'd prevail


[Pre-Chorus]
 Bm                G
Among the rain and lights I saw
    Bm            F#m
The figure "5" in gold
Bm       G
On a red firetruck
Bm                E
That's what I was told


[Chorus]
    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes
A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'
    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie
A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'

    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes
A                   D               E   A
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'
