Chorus:
C                               G           Am
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, oh yeah
    Dm                         Am                        G
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
C                               G            Am
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure everybody knows
    Dm                                 Am                           G
One day we love each other then we're fighting one another all the time

C                     G
When I was young and just getting started
A#                            F
And people talked to me they sounded broken hearted
C                   G
Then I grew up and got my imagination
A#                       A7
And all I wanted was to start a new relation
Dm              Gm
So in love but love had a bad reaction
F                       A#
I was looking for some good old satisfaction
F                    G
But pain is all I got when all I needed was some love and affection

Chorus:
C                               G           Am
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, oh yeah
    Dm                         Am                        G
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
           G7
Pain and pleasure

A#                  Am                         F   G A#7
When your plans go wrong and you turn out the light
A#                 Am                         F   G A#7
But inside of your mind you have to put up a fight

C                                G
Where are the answers that we're all searching for
        A#                           F
There's nothing in this world to be sure of anymore
     C                             G
Somedays you're feeling good, somedays you're feeeling bad
    A#                              A
But if you're feeling happy someone else is always sad
         Dm                         A#
Let the sweetness of love wipe the tears from your face
     Am                   A#                         F           G
For better for worse, so let's make the best of the rest of our years

Chorus:
C                               G          Am
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, I told you so
   Dm                         Am                              G
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
            G7
Pain and pleasure
D                               A         Bm
ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, yeah, yeah
    Em                         Bm                             A
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
          Bm A Bm A
All your life.
