MR. SUNSHINE
Lori McKenna

I'm on my way to the new storefront
just on the east side
ten bucks to renew whatever hope you lose first
and then I'm alright

and everyone there defends on their faith
and I can't breathe
I'm as afraid of the things that i'd say
as I am the things inside me

you scare me more than the hard times
I know they're coming around again
you scare me more than the gray skies
good morning, mr. sunshine

well I don't turn my back and I don't turn away
I just sulk in you
if I believed in myself what would all my friends say?
they'd see through, they could see through

you scare me more than the hard times
I know they're coming around again
you scare me more than the gray skies
good morning, mr. sunshine

mr. sunsine, you're so good to me
I could kill you before i'd let you go
mr. sunshine, you're so good to me

well I cry like a baby, you sing like a bird
and it feels like
you know everything that I say
but not a word that I heard
but it's alright, it's alright

you scare me more than the hard times
I know they're coming around again
you scare me more than the gray skies
good morning, mr. sunshine

you scare me more than the hard times
I know they're coming around again
you scare me more than the gray skies
good morning, mr. sunshine

scare me more than...
mr. sunshine...
good morning, mr. sunshine
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright
