Sight Of The Sun

Chords

Standard

E        Ebm          C#m                  B
For once, there is nothing up my sleeve
E              Ebm         C#m            B
Just some scars from a life that used trouble me
   E           Ebm         C#m         B
I used to run at first sight of the sun
          E                B          C#m          B
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up


E       Ebm          C#m                B
The city outside still sounds like it's on fire
E              Ebm    
You put on new sheets
    C#m             B
The white flag of a Saturday night
E       Ebm        C#m      B
I know we stayed up talking in circles
E                Ebm  
But I like to think the symmetry
    C#m             B
Will keep me close to you

E          Ebm              C#m             B
For everyone, I'm out to prove wrong, you keep the light on
E        Ebm           C#m            B
The only one, you now me better than the truth
E                    Ebm         C#m            B
So despite what I've done I pray to God that we can move on
E             Ebm                         C#m              B
Cause thus far you are the best thing that this life is yet to lose


E        Ebm          C#m          B
And, for once there is nothing up my sleeve
E         Ebm        C#m           B
Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me
E        Ebm         C#m       B
I used to run at first sight of the sun

I lay here waiting for you to wake up


    E           Ebm   C#m          B
So if you gonna leave, if you gonna go
    E           Ebm    C#m              B
I can't bare to sleep without you in my arms
E              Ebm                         C#m                  B
I know we got caught up sifting through a crowd of pebbles and lures
         E               Ebm         
But you must not let them take you
             C#m           B
They don't know you like I do


E   Ebm            C#m       B
For once, there is nothing up my sleeve
E         Ebm          C#m           B
Just some scars from a life that used trouble me

I used to run at first sight of the sun
E                B          C#m      B
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up

I lay here waiting for you to wake up

Do you remember when we stayed up till the sun stretched through the room
            E              Ebm             C#m  B
I used to blame it on the queens walking down 7th Avenue
            E                Ebm 
It's been years now since we moved
             C#m            B
I've gotten through with an excuse
            E                 Ebm         
You know I try not to speak superlatives
           C#m        B
But it's impossible to you

E Ebm C#m B 


E         Ebm      C#m           B
The city outside is nothing but a flicker now
E            Ebm              C#m         B
You see our friends to bed, you turn out the lights
E          Ebm                C#m       B
I start to think you'll make a beautiful mother, and
E         Ebm                   C#m              B
I like to think I have everything I want from this life.
