Staring At The Sun

[Intro]
| D5 | - |

[Verse 1]
D5      F5             G5        C5
  Maybe life is like a ride on a freeway
D5        F5                   G5        C5
  Dodging bullets while you're trying to find your way
D5     F5
  Everyone's around,
    G5            C5
but no one does a damn thing
   F5                  Bb5      C5
It brings me down, but I  won't let them

[Chorus]
     D5        F5
If I seem bleak
         G5       C5
Well, you'd be correct
         D5         F5
And if I don't speak
              G5          C5
It's 'cause I can't disconnect
      D5      F5       G5       C5
But I won't be  burned by the reflection
       D5   F5      G5
Of the fire in your eyes
          A5             D5
As you're staring at the sun
     F5      G5
Whoa oh oh oh
          C5             D5
As you're staring at the sun
     F5      G5
Whoa oh oh oh
          C5             D5
As you're staring at the sun
     F5      G5
Whoa oh oh oh
          C5             D5 F5
As you're staring at the sun
G5          A5             D5
  As you're staring at the sun

[Verse 2]
D5     C5 D5
  When I  ran,
F5       G5          C5
I didn't feel like a runaway
D5       C5 D5
  When I escaped,
F5       G5          C5
I didn't feel like I got away
D5             C5 D5 F5       G5      C5
  There's more to living than only surviving
      F5
Maybe I'm not there,
    Bb5       C5
but I'm still trying

[Chorus]
           D5     F5
Though you hear me
              G5         C5
I don't think that you relate
           D5       F5
My will is something
         G5          C5
That you can't confiscate
      D5
So forgive me,
F5      G5          C5
  but I won't be frustrated
      D5       F5      G5
By destruction in your eyes
          A5             D5
As you're staring at the sun
     F5      G5
Whoa oh oh oh
          C5             D5
As you're staring at the sun
     F5      G5 C5
Whoa oh oh oh
