Bb           Eb            Bb           Eb Bb
I can see clearly now the rain is gone,       well
Bb         Eb            F
I can see all obstacles in my way, yeah
Bb             Eb			Bb
Gone have the dark clouds that used to make me blind
             Ab                    Eb                        Bb
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
                 Ab 			      Eb	                  Bb
Oh I can see a bright, (bright) oh a little bright, now (bright) sun shiny day


Verse:

I think I can make it now that the rain is gone, yes I can
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is the rainbow I have been praying for.
Well, It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
Oh it's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day


Bridge:

C#					    Ab
Well, look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
		      C#				        F
Why don't you just a- look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies

C#					    Ab
Yes, look all around, there is nothing but blue skies
C#						        F
Why don't you look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies


I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way, don't worry!
Gone have all the dark clouds that used to make me blind.
Oh, I see it bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day, yes I do
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day

A great soul number!
