Soulshine

Allman Brothers Band

Composed by: Warren Haynes
key: Bb Tuning: E A D G B E
Bb             F               Eb                              Bb
When you can't find the light, that got you through the cloudy days,
Bb                    F                    Eb                         Bb
When the stars ain't shinin' bright, you feel like you've lost you're way,
Bb         F                     Eb                Bb
When those candle light of home, burns so very far away,
Bb                       F           Gm                        Ab
Well you got to let your soul shine, just like my daddy used to say.

[Chorus]
               Bb                          F
He used to say soulshine, it's better than sunshine,
                 Eb                               Bb
It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain.
                Bb                         F
Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime,
                Gm          Ab                      Bb
Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.

[Verse Two]
Bb                        F            Eb                  Bb
I grew up thinkin' that I had it made, gonna make it on my own.
Bb                F              Eb               Bb
Life can take the strongest man, make him feel so alone.
Bb                    F          Eb                        Bb
Now and then I feel a cold wind, blowin' through my achin' bones,
Bb                      F                    Gm                    Ab
I think back to what my daddy said, he said "Boy, in this darkness before the
dawn"

[Chorus]
               Bb                          F
He used to say soulshine, it's better than sunshine,
                 Eb                               Bb
It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain.
                Bb                         F
Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime,
                Gm          Ab                      Bb
Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.

[Bridge]
Gm                  Eb
Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness,
       Ebsus2                           Bb
Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul.
  Dm                            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.

                 Eb                               Bb
It's better than moonshine, damn sure better than rain.
               Bb                          F
Hey now people don't mind, we all get this way sometime,

Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day.
