Sunshine in Their Eyes Lyrics

SUNSHINE IN THEIR EYES by STEVIE WONDER
From ?Where I'm coming from? (1971)
PART I
Intro: Eb G+ Fm6 A#9
A lonesome tear, a hungry face
A barren pain, a dream unchased
M7 M7
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
A prayer is heard
By one so small
Let love be in the
Hearts of all
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
You feel that they're too young
To take a look around
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around
Today we must
Turn into lies
The truth already
In their minds
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
M7 M7
Do do do do do do do do
There's sunshine in their eyes
M7 M7
Hey no no
Sunshine in their eyes
M
Uh uh
PART II
Verse a
All my mother's worried
'Cause she feels the world is ending
M7
She believes that everything is coming to an end
Verse b
Papa being real careful
'Cause his brother Sam was robbed
trying to buy just a loaf of bread for baby John
Pre Chorus
See how the world scared
All the streets turning bad
Most of the news is bad
Crime just breeds in the air
Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
When is the tune now we are domed
Everything is Happenin'
Verse c
Cost of livin's up
But the pay is low down
M7
Hate to see the baby starve
'Cause mama can't be found
Verse d
Sister lives alone
Bolts and chains her door at night
Never ever walks an alley or a short away
Pre Chorus
See how the world scared
All the streets turning bad
Most of the news is bad
Crime just breeds in the air
Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
When is the tune now we are domed
Everything is Happenin'
Verse e
Brother Bill gone fighting
In a place where he is a stranger
M7
But could men die a stranger in every war
Verse F
We all hide in shame
Boldly pour into another
When the blame we know for sure is right in ourselves
In ourselves
Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
When is the tune now we are domed
Everything is Happenin'
