Verse 1
Those days when our hearts were as big as the sun
turn around with a smile for everyone
that feeling’s a memory
funny how it fades away
______________________________________________________
Verse 2:
Verse riff
You won’t see those pale grays returning to blues
the colors will wash out as I shrink in my shoes
and I won’t always live and breathe
watch me as I fade away
______________________________________________________
Chorus:
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
burning like forever then it fades away
_____________________________________________________
Verse 3:
Verse riff
who on this planet would ever refuse
the chance of a lifetime to love and lose
when time is of no importance
______________________________________________________
Bridge- I don’t know how to play that wierd backwards guitar…so
Just play the Intro Riff
______________________________________________________
Chorus:
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
we wake in the morning and work all day
we dress up in the evening with nothing to say
just like a candle burning bright
burning like forever then it fades away

This is my Favorite on the CD

1/2 down Tuning
Use all Bar chords in this song and it will sound sweet

When will it stop raining? When will these dark clouds go?
Gm F G Bb G Bb
somedays I get so low, but you turn me around, you turn me around
won’t you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
’cause I need your sweet sunshine
Won’t you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
‘cause I need your sweet sunshine
You take away my sadness and the pain inside my heart
sometimes I fall apart, but you turn me around, you turn me around
Won’t you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
‘cause I need your sweet sunshine
Won’t you come down to my dark street, and shine a light
‘cause I need your sweet sunshine
sunshine
