greets the day with hope and comfort, too.

You fill my life with laughter   and somehow you make it better,

There's a love that's divine

and it's yours and it's mine....like the sun.
Ebmaj7
And at the end of the day
                               Dm7         Eb/F
we should give thanks and pray to the one, to the one.

Chords:
Bb         003331
Dm7        xx0211
Ebmaj7     x65333
Eb/F       xx3343
Cm7        x35343


I think the major problem I have is trying to get these chords to sound
clear.  Oh well, good luck.
