A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm
Eloquent sun is pouring out her heart
DmDm E MajorE A minorAm
To every living thing
DmDm G+G C majorC G+G A minorAm
And no one cares, but while she's there
G+G B7B7 E MajorE
Existence is getting you in
A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm
Yet every day, a piece of her is gone
DmDm E MajorE A minorAm
Gone for good, never to return

So she sighs and slowly cries
G+G E MajorE
Cause soon she knows she'll cease to burn

And through her eyes the sun's for the hurting sky

Trees reflecting into space no longer
