the clouds to roll away
Maybe tomorrow gone will be sorrow wait for the sunshine
to bring a brighter day
[ dobro ]
If sorrow and trouble you're seeing double black clouds
surround you all the time
Well don't let misfortune be too discouraging remember
tomorrow the sun will shine
Wait for the sunshine...
[ harmonica ]
If it seems forever since there's been laughter don't
let old misery get you down
Just keep your chin up don't ever give up tomorrow
the sunshine may come around
Wait for the sunshine...
