Imagine a month of Sundays,        each one a cloudy day.
G           Am         D                  D9 D9
Imagine the moment the sun came shining through.
D9                     D9       G Am  G  Am
Imagine that ray of sunshine as you
G             Am      D     Am        G          Am      D    Am
Remember your darkest hour,      with dawn still far away.
G            Am           D                    D9    D9
Remember the way that you longed for morning's light,
    D9                     D9            G     Am  G  Am
And think of yourself as a candle in the night.
G            Am                D   Am      G              Am      D   Am
Make believe this is the first day;       everything all brand-new.
G            Am       D                     D9    D9
Make believe that the sun is your own lucky star,
         D9             D9               G    Am    G  Am
And then understand the kind of gift you are,

Like the very first breath of spring.
