[C]You got to accentuate the positive,
eliminate [C]the negative,
and latch on to the affirmative.
Don't mess with Mr. [A]Inbetween.
[G]You got to [C]spread joy
up to the maximum,
[G]and bring glo[D]om down
[C]to a minimum,
and have faith,
Or pande[C]monium is liable
to walk up on the scene
To illustrate [Bb]my last rema[C]rk
Jonah in the [F]whale, Noah in [C]the ark
What did they do,
[Bb]just when [F]everything [Am]looked so dark?
[G]Man, they sti[C]ll forgot to accent
To eat the positive [D]end[C]
[D]Elim[C]inate the negative [G]end
