Look For The Silver Lining

Jerome Kern


Tom: G

G               Em7           C             D7
Please don't be offended if I preach to you awhile
G                             Am7                D7
Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile
G               Em7        C                A7
There's a way to make your biggest troubles small
G                A7           D    Am   D7
Here's the happy secret of it all


[Chorus]
G            D7     G
Look for the silver lining
           G                    G     Am7   G
Whene'er a cloud appears in the blue
G         Am7           Bm7    G         Em7
Remember, somewhere the sun is shining
           C              Am7
And so the right thing to do
   D        Am7      D7
Is make it shine for you

  G         Am7 D7      G
A heart full of joy and gladness
     D7     G                  C      A7
Will always banish sadness and strife
          C            D7     Bm      A7
So always look for the silver lining
           C        Am7    D7      G
And try to find the sunny side of life
