Verse 1

There's no shame in being broken hearted
Though I try to do more to fix my soul
Trying to be more than when I started
There's no path before me, there's no horror story
That could ever keep my God from swinging low

Verse 2

People act a certain way in trials
Different than they do on any day
This is when you see a man's true colors
This is when he shows you how much he can go through
Before all his faith is stripped away 

Chorus

I work hard not to fall
Cause it's a long way down  
And I owe it to my family
Keep my feet on the ground  
It's in the sunshine, I feel the sunshine
It's shining down on me

Verse 3

I admit at times I've been unfaithful
Times where all I do is worry and doubt
That's when my god comes like warming rays of summer
Melting all my worries and my insecurities
And giving me the strength I've been without 

Chorus

I work hard not to fall
Cause it's a long way down  
And I owe it to my family
Keep my feet on the ground  
It's in the sunshine, I feel the sunshine
It's shining down on me
Oh shining down on me

Outro

It's in the sunshine, I feel the sunshine
It's shining down on me
*note: Brnadon Coleman occasionally does a walk of G F# G G# on the low E string when transitioning between
the G and Am chords. He also occsionally plays a Cadd9 (x-3-2-0-3-0) inside his normal C chord.
