To Try For The Sun
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
GWe stood in the Cmaj7windy Emcity, D
CThe gypsy Dboy and GI.
GWe slept on the Cmaj7breeze in Emthe Dmidnight
CWith the rain droppin', Dtears in our Geyes.
Refrain
CAnd who's going to be Dthe one G
CTo say it was no Dgood what we Gdone?
CI dare a man to Dsay I'm too Gyoung,
CFor I'm going to Dtry for the Gsun.
Couplet
GWe huddled in a Cmaj7derelict EmbuildDing
CAnd when he Dthought I was Gasleep
GHe laid his poor coat Cmaj7round my EmshoulDder,
CAnd shivered there Dbeside me Gin a heap.
Refrain
Couplet
GWe sang and cracked the Cmaj7sky with EmlaughDter,
COur breath turned to Dmist in the Gcold.
GOur years put together Cmaj7count to Emthirty, D
CBut our eyes told Dthe dawn we Gwere old.
Refrain
Couplet
GMirror, mirror, Cmaj7hanging in Emthe Dsky,
CWon't you look down Dwhat's Ghappening here below?
GI stand here singing Cmaj7to the Emflowers, D
CSo very few people Dreally Gknow.
Refrain
Couplet
GWe stood in the Cmaj7windy Emcity, D
CThe gypsy Dboy and GI.
GWe slept on the Cmaj7breeze in Emthe Dmidnight
CWith the rain droppin', Dtears in our Geyes.
