Chord/Tab song: Brighter Days

written by Kenny Loggins and Dona Lyn George

[Cmaj9]I've seen brighter,[Fmaj9] [Cmaj9]I've known brighter days[A][A7]
[Dm7]lying alone in the [Dm7-5]shade of a manzanita;
[Cmaj9]it's been sweeter,[Fmaj9] [Cmaj9]bitter sweeter days.[A][A7]
I [Dm7]know it's not for always, but [Dm7-5]all i can say is
[Cmaj9]I've known better days.[E7]
Is s[A7]ummer gone? [Dm7] Has it b[G]een that lo[Cmaj7]ng?
I [Fmaj9]guess that's what seasons will b[Bm7]ring.[E7]
I'm [Am7]caught a[D]gain in the a[G]utumn w[Cmaj7]ind, [Cm7]
but I remember [Dm7]spring.[G]
For [Cmaj9]I've [Bbmaj9] seen [G11]brighter [Cmaj9]days,[Bmaj9]
seen lighter p[Cmaj9]laces to [Bbmaj9]stay al[Em9]ong my [A]way.
Oh, [Dm7]I've seen b[G]righter d[Cmaj9]ays[Bbmaj9][F][G11]
[Cmaj9]I've seen warmer,[Fmaj9] [Cmaj9]soft and warmer ni[A]ghts[A7]
[Dm7]lying with love by my [Dm7]side in the sycamores[Cmaj9]
there've been finer,[Fmaj9] [Cmaj9]I've seen mighty finer ni[A]ghts[A7]
[Dm7]Knowing what's wrong or what's [Dm7-5]right just don't matter[Cmaj9]
when you're in warmer nights.[E7]
But h[Am7]ere I [Dm7]am like a s[G]ea blown [Cmaj7]wind
[Fmaj9]under my thunder and [Bm7]rain[E7]
[Am7]I'll ride the wa[D]ves till a s[G]unny [Cmaj7]day[Cm7]
comes to me a[Dm7]gain[G]
for [Cmaj9]I've [Bbmaj9] seen brighter [Cmaj9]days,
[Bbmaj9]seen lighter [Cmaj9]places to [Bbmaj9]stay a[Em9]long my [A]way.
Oh, I[Dm7]'ve seen b[G]righter d[Cmaj9]ays. [Bbmaj9][F][Cmaj9]
