Days Of Plenty (from Little Women: The Musical)

I never dreamed of this (Fsus2)sorrow.

I never thought I'd have (Dm7sus4)reason to lament.

I hoped I'd never know (Am7)heartbreak.

How I wish I could (Gm7)change the way things (C7)went.

I want nothing but (F)goodness.

I wanted (Cmaj7)reason to (Am9)prevail, not (Dm7sus4)this

(Eb6)bare tiness.

I (F)(C)wanted (Dm7)days of (Gsus4)plenty.

But I refuse to feel (Fsus2)tragic.

I am asking for (Dm7sus4)more than pain and grief.

There has got to be (Am7)meaning.

Most of all when a (Gm7)life has been so (C7)brief.

I have got to learn (F)something.

How can I (Cmaj7)give her any (Am9)less?

I want (Dm7)life

to go (Eb6)on.

(F)I (C)want (Dm7sus4)days of (Gsus4)plenty.

(G)You (F69)have to believe there is (Dm7)reason for hope.

You (Am7)have to believe that the (Gsus4)(G)answers will (C)come.

You can't let (F)this (C)defeat you.

I won't let (Gsus4)this (C)defeat you.

You must fight to (F)keep her (Am7)there (Bbsus2)within you.

(G7sus4)So believe that she (Fsus2)(G)mattered.

(Fsus2)And believe that she (Dm7sus4)(G)always (Dm7sus4)will.

She will always be (Am7)(G)with you.

(Am7)She'll be part of the (Gm7)days you've yet to (Bb)fill.

(Csus4)She will (C)live (Dm)in your (Fsus2)(G)bounty.

She will live as you (Em7)carry on your (Am7)life.

(Ab)So carry (Cmaj7)on,

full of (G7sus4)hope.

She'll be (C)there

(Dm9)for (Dm7)all (Em7)your (Fmaj7)days of plenty.
