As recorded by Dwight Yoakam (From the 2024 Album BRIGHTER DAYS) [Intro] C C/B Am G F G C [Chorus]
C
Brighter days are up ahead

C
Brighter days that's what you said

    F                            C
The first time you ever spoke to me

C
Brighter days are bound to come

C
Around each corner shines the sun

     F                               C
Just waiting there for both of us to see

D
Brighter days

                      G
Are what you promised me
[Verse 1]
C
Brighter days won't take too long

C
With brighter days the clouds move on

     F
Then leave a soft warm light that

        C
Sets us free

G
Brighter days are bound to come

G
Around each corner shines the sun

                                     C
Just waiting there for both of us to see
[Bridge]
Am            F
 That promise makes

G             C
Every step we take

Am                    F
Lead where the future beams

D                    G
Sweet fortune cookie dreams
[Chorus]
C
Brighter days are up ahead

Brighter days that's what you said

Around each corner shines the sun
