[Intro]

Play Main Riff x 2

Dm


[Chorus]
                          A
Without the clouds in the sky
                                       Dm
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
                            A
The bad helps to define the good
                                Dm
The splinter is the cost of the wood
                  A
So take it all in stride
               Dm
Take it all in stride
               A
Take it all in stride


[Verse 1]
             Dm
I ain't been sober in a month cause I'm losing my conviction
       A
At the end of a tunnel filled with all my bad decisions
    Dm
I'm learning bad luck is the only kind I got
          A
I've been burned, I've been fucked, it's so much harder than I thought
       Dm
If I'd just been born in Cali I'd already be a star
        A
But I'm from the mid-Atlantic playing reggae in a bar
              Dm
And I've been climbing up this hill so god damned long
    A
The boy who wrote the lyrics ain't the man singing the songs


[Chorus]
                                A
Without the clouds in the sky
                                                  Dm
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
                                   A
The bad helps to define the good
                                        Dm
The splinter is the cost of the wood
                            A
So take it all in stride
                       Dm
Take it all in stride
                       A
Take it all in stride


[Verse 2]
Dm
A                              Dm
And every single night I turn out the light

Close my eyes and the demons show their face
         A
And remind me that I'm about to conclude another day
Dm
Short of where I want to be and with no clue how to get there
        A
And failure is a scent that I'm destined to always wear
              Dm
Please God if you exist, help me cause it aint fair
       A
I'm shouldering a burden and it's more than I can bare


[Chorus] (Partial)
Dm                     A
So take it all in stride
                       Dm
Take it all in stride
                       A
Take it all in stride

Key Change


[Verse 3]
F                                             Bb
Don't doubt the sun is behind the clouds

No matter what you think it outta be about
F
Go tell the one you can't be without
C
That you want to take time to know her better
F
Don't doubt the clouds are temporary
Bb
Holding on to something that you wish you had plenty
             F
But its bolted down to the concrete floor
        C
You say you want less but I'm giving you more
       F
Anyway I could say what you want me to say
            Bb
I could recycle all the bullshit and become a cliché
              F
I could take back all of my music and make everyone pay
             C
I could do this, really do this, in a serious way
                  F
I wouldn't waste my time
                Bb
Looking at the sky
                     F
When everything I love
               C
Is down here on the ground, would you listen to the sound
                  F
Bumping Uglies


[Chorus]
                               Bb
Without the clouds in the sky
                                                 F
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
                                  C
The bad helps to define the good
                                        F
The splinter is the cost of the wood
                            Bb
So take it all in stride
                       F
Take it all in stride
                       C
Take it all in stride
                       F
Take it all in stride
                       Bb
Take it all in stride
                       F
Take it all in stride
                       C
Take it all in stride
