The Kinks - Look a Little on the Sunny Side: chords

G7            C9            F
Look a little on the sunny side,
G7              C9                  F
Even when they say you're on the slide,
          C9                     F6
And for a while they'll say your records
never make it,
          C9                     F6
But in a while they're gonna be showering
you with praises.
         F          E+
They'll give you mediocre reviews and
Cm/D#          D7
put you in the underground for a while,
     G7           C9
But look a little on the funny,
 F                   G7           C9            F
sunny side of life, look a little on the sunny side.

    F6                                         C9
You sing 'em the blues and then they ask for a happy
tune,
                                        F6
And when you start to smile they'll say gimme
dat rhythm and blues,

And when you give 'em dat rhythm and blues
                 A
they'll simply smile and say
                             E              A
We didn't want to hear you play, we didn't like
        C7
you any way.

It's very hard to please
the people every single time
But look a little on the sunny side
Look a little on the sunny side
Even when you feel you want to hide
You've gotta laugh,
don't let your critics ever upset you
Cos for a while, the cynics will all
be out to get you
You gotta be shrewd, you gotta be strong
You gotta convince yourself that you are not wrong
Whistle a tune and think of a catchy,
happy, little song

And look a little on the sunny side
It's very hard to please the people
every single time
But look a little on the sunny side
They're gonna put you down for a while
You got to learn to grit your teeth and smile
Look a little on the funny, sunny side of life
Look a little on the sunny side
