            G             C          D           G
There are three things I do when my life falls apart
       G             C           D            G
Number one I cry my eyes out and I dry up my heart
 G           C               D        Em
Not until I do this will my new life start
               G                  C          D           G
So that's the first thing that I do when my life falls apart.

Well the second thing I do is I close both of my eyes
And sing my thank yous to each and every moment of my life
I go where I know the love is and let it fill me up inside
Gathering new strength from sorrow
I’m glad to be alive

Chorus:
                   C
Things are looking up
                                     G
I know above the clouds the sun is shining
                   C
Things are looking up
                              Em     D
Love is still the answer I'm relying on
                    G
just three little things

Well the third thing that
I do now when my world caves in
Is I pause, I take a breath and bow
And I let the chapter end
I design my future bright
Not by when my life has been
And I try try try try, try again
Yes I try try try try, try again

Chorus:
Things are looking up
I know beyond the dark the sun is rising
Things are looking up
And I know above the clouds the sun is shining
Things are looking up
Uh, love is still the answer I'm relying on
Three little things
Three little things
