The Sun Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Drum beat]
[Am][C][D]
[Am][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[Am]After scho[C]ol, walking home
[D]Fresh dirt under my fingernails
[Am]And I can [C]smell hot asphalt
[D]Cars screech to a halt to let me pass
[Am]And I cannot r[C]emember
[D]What life was like through photographs
[Am]And trying to re[C]create
[D]i mages life gives us from our past
[Am]And [C]sometimes it's a sad son[D]g

[Chorus 1]
But [F]I cannot forg[C]et
Refuse to re[Am]gret
So glad I [G]met you and
[F]Take my breath away[C]
Make every [Am]day
Worth all of the [G]pain that I have gone through
[F]And Mama, I'v[C]e been cryin'
'Cause [Am]things ain't how they [G]used to be
She said, "The [F]battle's almost won
And we're [Bm]only several [E]miles from the sun"

[Interlude 1]
[Am]Oh w[C]hoa,[D]
[Am]yeah[C][D]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Now, moving [C]on down my street
[D]I see people I won't ever meet
[Am]I think of her a[C]nd take a breath
[D]Feel the beat in the rhythm of my ste[Am]ps
[C]And sometimes it's a sad[D] song

[Chorus 2]
But [F]I cannot forg[C]et
Refuse to re[Am]gret
So glad I [G]met you and
[F]Take my breath away[C]
Make every [Am]day
Worth all of the [G]pain that I have gone through
[F]And Mama, I'v[C]e been cryin'
'Cause [Am]things ain't how they [G]used to be
She said, "The [F]battle's almost won
And we're [Bm]only several [E]miles from the sun"

[Bridge 1]
[Am]The rhythm of her conversation
[E]The perfection of her creation
[Am]The sex she slipped into my coffee
[E]The way she felt when she first saw me
[Am]Hate to love and love to hate her
[E]Like a broken record player
[Am]Back and forth and here and gone
And [E]on, and on, and on, and on

[Chorus 3]
[F]I cannot forget[C]
Refuse to re[Am]gret
So glad I [G]met you and
[F]Take my breath away[C]
Make every [Am]day
Worth all of the [G]pain that I have gone through
[F]And Mama, I'v[C]e been cryin'
'Cause [Am]things ain't how they [G]used to be
She said, "The [F]battle's almost won
And we're [Bm]only several [E]miles
Said, the [F]battle's almost won
And we're [Bm]only several [E]miles from the sun"

[Outro 1]
