Smile - The Jayhawks

Wake up

Put your shoes on

Take a breath of the northern air

And rub those eyes

Genuflect beneath the starry skies

Before

You climb the mountain

First the foothills must appear

Step high and light

And take up your staff and shining armor

(Chin up, chin up)

You don’t really have a problem

(Chin up, chin up)

In your hour of despair

And smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile

The stars

On the horizon

Stretch as far as the eyes can see

They represent

The souls of those like you and me

And smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

And smile

(Chin up, chin up)

You don’t really have a problem

(Chin up, chin up)

In your hour of despair

And smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile when you’re down and out

(Find something inside you)

Smile when you’re down and out and out and out and out and out

(Find something inside you)

(The sky is falling down, the sky is falling down)

(Find something inside you)

(The sky is falling down, the sky is falling down)
