C                  Am       Fmaj7 Dm G
When the grey skies turn to blue
         C        Am       Fmaj7 Dm G
And the dark clouds blow away
         C           F
In the morning of a new life
          C                  Am
When the sun comes shining through
          Dm        G        C  Dm G
And the grey skies turn to blue

When the grey skies turn to blue
In the morning of a new life
When the sun comes shining through
When the grey skies turn to blue

 C                      Em      F
Meet me on a bright and windy day
           Dm                   G              C
When the breeze has blown the grey skies far away
 C           Em                F
High upon a hillside when the sun comes
shining through
         Dm         G      Am G
And the grey skies turn to blue
         Dm          G        C
When the grey skies turn to blue

           C      Am         Fmaj7 Dm G C
When the grey skies turn to blue
