Words and music by James Taylor from his 1969 album, "James Taylor." [Intro] Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 G7 [Verse 1]
Em7                 Fmaj7
Sounds of laughter, here comes sunshine

Dm7              G7
Smiling faces all around

Em7               Fmaj7      Em7
They possess you, bless you, sunshine

    Dm7           G9
Now you can never let them down

      Cmaj7
I say sunshine
[Chorus]
Dm7               Ebmaj7  Abmaj7  Cmaj7     Bb      Fmaj7     Ebmaj7
Sunshine, sunshine,               is that a cloud across your smile

Cmaj7      Fmaj7  Em7  Dm7       G9
Or did you dream     again last night?

Cmaj7         C7             Fmaj7  Dm7
It's best you rest inside a while

                    G7    Eb          Abmaj7    Bb  C  Em7
As blue doesn't seem to suit you right
[Verse 2]
                       Fmaj7   Em7
Things ain't what they used to be

          Dm7        G7     Em7
I say pain and rain, misery

                Fmaj7  Em7
Illness in the family

      Dm7                 G9
And sunshine means a lot to me

       Cmaj7
I say sunshine
[Verse 3]
    Ebmaj7      Abmaj7       Ebmaj7       Abmaj7
But could it be sunshine is drifting with midnight

     Ebmaj7     Abmaj7         Dm7  G7
And lonely when everyone's gone?

C                C7        F/A           C
Blue crystal spirits and gardens in moonlight

 Dm7   Em   C  Bbmaj7   Am7      Dm7                 G7
Leave weak, alone and bleak, all quiet and grey by dawn
[Chorus]
Dm7               Ebmaj7  Abmaj7  Cmaj7     Bb      Fmaj7     Ebmaj7
Sunshine, sunshine                rising too late to chase the cold

Cmaj7      Fmaj7  Em7          Dm7       G9
And failing to       change the frost to dew

Cmaj7         C7             Fmaj7  Dm7
She's trading her mood of yellow gold

                   G7    Eb          Abmaj7    Bb  C  Em7
For frostbitten shades of silver-blue
[Verse 5]
Em7                 Fmaj7
Friends and lovers past and gone, Lord

    Dm7              G7
And no one waiting further on

Em7               Fmaj7      Em7
I'm running short of things to be

    Dm7            G9
And sunshine means quite a lot to me

      Cmaj7
I say sunshine

      Cmaj7
Whoa sunshine
