Song: I SmileType: Chords and Lyrics
Artist: Kirk Franklin
Album: Hello Fear
After quite sometime, I finally figured out the chords to play I Smile, a fantastic song on the Hello Fear album by Kirk Franklin. The guitar chords for I Smile are quite simple (Wow! I really didn't expect the chords to really be that simple!) and unlike playing I Smile on the piano, doesn't use much progression with the chords. So enjoy playing the song! Wear a smile while playing it! ^_^

DbM7
Today's a new day
Eb7
but there is no sunshine,
GbM7
Nothing but clouds
and it's dark in my heart
B7
And it feels like a cold night.
DbM7
Today's a new day,
Eb7
tell me where are my blue skies?
GbM7
Where is that love
and the joy that you promised me?
B7
Tell me it's all right?
Pre-Chorus:
GbM7 Eb7
I almost gave up at a power that I can't explain!
B7 Ab7sus
Fell from Heaven, like a shower now.
Chorus:
DbM7 Db7
I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,
GbM7
I know God is working so I smile,
B7
Even though I've been here for a while
DbM7
I smile, smile!
Db7
It's so hard to look up when you've been down,
GbM7
Sure would hate to see you give up now,
B7
You look so much better when you smile!
