Did you walk, or did you run, away? Where are you now, where have you been? Did you go alone, or did you bring a friend? [Chorus] I need to know this 'cause I noticed when you're smilin' Out in the sun, havin' fun and feelin' free And I can tell you know how hard this life can be But you keep on smilin' for meeeeeeeeeee! [ intrumental } (its all the same chords all the long of the song) [Verse] What went right, what went wrong? Was it a story, or was it a song? Was it overnight, or did it take you long? Was knowing your weakness what made it strong? [Chorus] Or all the above? Oh, how I love to see you smilin' And, oh yeah, take a little pain, just in case You need something warm to embrace To help you put on a smilin' face Hey, put on a smilin' face (Girl, let me smile at you) (Girl, let me smile at you) [Bridge] (palm mute them for this part) Don't you go off into the new day with any doubt Here's a summary of somethin' that you could smile about: Say, for instance, my girlfriend, she bugs me all the time But the irony of it all is that she loves me all the time [Chorus] I want to be you, whenever I see you smilin' 'Cause it's easily one of the hardest things to do Your worries and fears become your friends And they end up smilin' at you Put on a smilin' face
