Staring at the Sun (U2) - U2 POP
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Am G F Em) 2x
Am G
Summer stretching on the grass
F Em
Summer dresses pass
Am G
In the shade of a willow tree
F Em
Creeps a crawling over me
Am G
Over me and over you
F Em
Stuck together with God's glue
Am G
It's going to get stickier too
F
It's been a long hot summer
G
Let's get under cover
F
Don't try too hard to think
G
Don't think at all
C
I'm not the only one
Am
Staring at the sun
D
Afraid of what you'd find
F
If you took a look inside
C
I'm not just deaf and dumb
Am
Staring at the sun
D
Not the only one
F
Who's happy to go blind
( Am G F Em ) 1x
Am G
There's an insect in your ear
F Em
If you scratch it won't disappear
Am G
It's going to itch and burn and sting
F Em
You want to see what the scratching brings
Am G
Waves that leave me out of reach
F Em
Breaking on your back like a beach
Am G
Will we ever live in peace
F
'Cause those that can't do
G
Often have to
F
And those that can't do
G
Often have to preach
C
To the ones
Am
Staring at the sun
D
Afraid of what you'll find
F
If you took a look inside
C
Not just deaf and dumb
Am
Staring at the sun
D
I'm not the only one
F
Who'd rather go blind
( Am C D Am C G Am G D )
Am
Intransigence is all around
Military still in town
Armour plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will He listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something missing
F G
I left it in the duty free
F G
But you never really belonged to me
C
You're not the only one
Am
Staring at the sun
D
Afraid of what you'd find
F
If you stepped back inside
C
I'm not sucking on my thumb
Am
I'm staring at the sun
D
Not the only one
F
Who's happy to go blind
Am C D Am C D...
