Sun Goes Down tab by Lil Nas X

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

If the F#m9 is tricky, replace it with an Amaj7. It's the same chord without the low note in there, but the
low note is in the song.

Chorus:
A
I wanna run away
            F#m9
Don't wanna lie, I don't want a life
C#m7        Dmaj7     C#m7         Dmaj7
Send me a gun and I'll see the sun
A
I'd rather run away
            F#m9
Don't wanna lie, I don't want a life
C#m7        Dmaj7     C#m7         Dmaj7
Send me a gun and I'll see the sun
    A
You need an instant ease
F#m9
 From the life where you got plenty
         C#m7       Dmaj7
Of every hurt and heartbreak
                 C#m7         Dmaj7
You just take it all to the face
  A
I know that you want to cry
F#m9
 But it's much more to life than dyin'
     C#m7          Dmaj7
Over your past mistakes
                     C#m7           Dmaj7
And people who threw dirt on your name


Verse:
A
Since ten, I've been feelin' lonely
F#m9
Had friends but they was pickin' on me
C#m7                       Dmaj7
Always thinkin', "Why my lips so big?"
C#m7                       Dmaj7
Was I too dark? Can they sense my fears?
A
These gay thoughts would always haunt me
F#m9
I prayed God would take it from me
C#m7        Dmaj7
It's hard for you when you're fightin'
C#m7         Dmaj7
And nobody knows it when you're silent
A
I'd be by the phone
               F#m9
Stanning Nicki mornin' into dawn
             C#m7          Dmaj7
Only place I felt like I belonged
                   C#m7                 Dmaj7
Strangers make you feel so loved, you know?
        A
And I'm happy by the way
                 F#m9
That I made that jump, that leap of faith
                  C#m7                 Dmaj7
I'm happy that it all worked out for me
             C#m7               Dmaj7
I'ma make my fans so proud of me (Oh)

Chorus:
A
I wanna run away
            F#m9
Don't wanna lie, I don't want a life
C#m7        Dmaj7     C#m7           Dmaj7
Send me a gun and I'll see the sun
A
I'd rather run away
            F#m9
Don't wanna lie, I don't want a life
C#m7        Dmaj7     C#m7           Dmaj7
Send me a gun and I'll see the sun
    A
You need an instant ease
F#m9
 From the life where you got plenty
