Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
E minorEm
There was a sun once

It lit the whole damn sky
     F# minorF#m
It kept everything
D MajorD      E minorEm
Everything alive
E minorEm
And there was a man once

He looked it straight in the eye
    F# minorF#m
He saw everything
D MajorD
Everything
    E minorEm
He went blind

Chorus:
A augmentedA        E minorEm
The truth burns bright
A augmentedA         E minorEm
There's too much there sometimes
A augmentedA     EM        F#F#   D MajorD
The sun it shows, the sun it blinds
A augmentedA    E minorEm
Best to keep your eyes
A augmentedA      E minorEm
Stare at the sidewalk lines
A augmentedA    E minorEm         F# minorF#m
Let lies lie, don't let them shine
      D MajorD           E minorEm
...let them shine, don't let them shine


Verse 2:
EM
The blind man staggers

And he grabs at his eyes
      F# minorF#m
He can't do anything
D MajorD        E minorEm
Everything is a lie
E minorEm
Now he sits around

And he stares at the walls
      F# minorF#m
He can't do anything
D MajorD      E minorEm
Anything at all


Chorus:
A augmentedA        E minorEm
The truth burns bright
A augmentedA         E minorEm
There's too much there sometimes
A augmentedA     EM        F#F#   D MajorD
The sun it shows, the sun it blinds
A augmentedA    E minorEm
Best to keep your eyes
A augmentedA      E minorEm
Stare at the sidewalk lines
A augmentedA    E minorEm         F# minorF#m
Let lies lie, don't let them shine
      D MajorD           E minorEm
...let them shine, don't let them shine

F# minorF#m          D MajorD
Shield your eyes from all this misery
F# minorF#m       D MajorD
  Don't belong, don't belong
