[Chorus]
    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes

A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'

    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie

A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'

E
You are a busy bee. You are a busy bee!
[Verse]
D  A      D            A
Sunshine, sitting on a pavement crack

D            A
Everyone was staring back

    G
But you didn't mind

D  A      D               A
Sunshine, futile were our defenses

D                  A
Backwards ran your sentences

  G
Until reeled the mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                   G
Next what's fear and silence in

Bm            F#m
Wait just all well then

Bm          G
Upside-down everything

Bm           E
Turning done you're when
[Chorus]
    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes

A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'

    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie

A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'

E
You are a busy bee. You are a busy bee!
[Verse]
D    A     D                 A
Back then, fighting with the permanent

D                   A
Pushing through the sediment

     G
Till we lost the trail

D    A     D                    A
Back then, those days felt like house arrest

D              A
Half-awake and self-possessed

   G
We thought we'd prevail
[Pre-Chorus]
 Bm                G
Among the rain and lights I saw

    Bm            F#m
The figure "5" in gold

Bm       G
On a red firetruck

Bm                E
That's what I was told
[Chorus]
    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes

A                   D
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'

    A              D
The bright side is just a white lie

A                    D
That the crowd keeps singin', singin'

    A              D
The bright side is blinding our eyes

A                   D               E   A
And the sound keeps ringin', ringin'
