C#  
Today's a new day  
                Eb  
but there is no sunshine,  
             F#  
Nothing but clouds  
and it's dark in my heart  
                    B  
And it feels like a cold night.  
              C#  
Today's a new day,  
                     Eb  
tell me where are my blue skies?  
               F#  
Where is that love  
and the joy that you promised me?  
            B  
Tell me it's all right?  

Pre-Chorus: 
  
   F#                           Eb  
I almost gave up at a power that I can't explain!  
B                                    Ab 
Fell from Heaven, like a shower now.  

 
  C#                              C#/Eb  
I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,  
                           F#  
I know God is working so I smile,  
                                 B7  
Even though I've been here for a while  
         C#  
I smile, smile!  
                                         C#/Eb  
It's so hard to look up when you've been down,  
                                   F#  
Sure would hate to see you give up now,  
                                  B  
You look so much better when you smile!  

Coda:  
F#        Fm7  
Smile for me!  
             F#        C#  
Can you just smile for me!  
F#        Fm7  
Smile for me!  
             F#        C#  
Can you just smile for me!  
And my people say  
        F#  
oh, oh, oh!  
                                         Fm7  
You look so much better when you oh, oh, oh!  
                                         F#  
You look so much better when you oh, oh, oh!  
                                         Fm7  
You look so much better when you oh, oh, oh  
                                      (Ebm7)    
You look so much better when you smile!
