[Verse 1]
[Bm]When[D] the[Bb] sky[Bbaug][D]
[A]is a [Bb]bright ca[Bbaug]nary yel [Bm]low,
I for[Em]get every cloud [D]I've ever seen.
[A]So [D]they call me a coc[G]k
[D]eyed [F#m]optimist,[D]
[Bm]Imma[D]ture and inc[A]urably green.
[D]I have heard people ran[Bbaug]t and
rave and bellow
[Bm]That we're [Em]done and we might
as [D]well be dead.
But I'm [G]only a cockeyed [D]optim[F#m]ist,
[Bm]And I [Em]can't [G]get it i[D]nto [A]my h[Bm]ead.
[D]I h[F#m]ear the human r[D]ace
is falling [C#]on its face
and hasn't very [F#m]far to[C#] go
[C#]But [F#]every whipperwill is selling me a [C#]bill
and [A]telling me it just [E]ain't
[Asus4]so I coul[A]d say life is
[Bb]just [Bbaug]a bowl of [Bm]jello
and ap[Em]pear more intelligent [D]and [A]smart
[D]But I'm stuck like a dope
[G]with a [D]thing called [E]hope
And I [A]can't get it out of my heart
[D]Of [G]thi[Em]s hea[Bm]rt you[G][Bb][D]
