You Might As Well Smile

C               F  C
You're still the best person I ever knew
There were a thousand little things that I was always
         G
Just about to say to you
      Fmaj7     Em7        D
But the now time, it grows shorter for the speeches
      Fmaj7
Just let me leave you with the line
         Cmaj7       Dm7  C
It might help you pass the time sometime

Chorus:
         Fmaj7
You might as well smile
     G      F     Cmaj7
Ain't no tears gonna drown the rain, keeps on fallin'
         Fmaj7
You might as well smile
     G     F          Cmaj7
Ain't no pain gonna change what still remains
         F
You might as well mantain, babe
       C      Am
Protect your sanity, your sanity,
   F            G C
Then shine it on me, shine it on me

I remember times when you held you, you'd freeze my spine
We were lookin' in the mirror at the time
I got confused and I thought your eyes were mine
But now the time, it grows shorter for the secrets
Just let me leave you with some truth
Might help you hold on to your youth sometimes

Chorus +:
F   Em7      Bb/D  G    C
Shine, shine, let it shine, shine on me
