Staring At The Sun

U2
 AmG
 Summer stretching on the grass
 FEm
 Summer dresses pass
 AmG
 In the shade of willow tree
 FEm
 Creeps are crawling over me
 AmG
 Over me and over you
 FEm
 Stuck together with Gods glue
 AmG
 It's gonna get stickier too
 F
 It's been a long hot summer
 G
Let's get under cover
 FG
Don't try to hard to think don't think at all
 CAm
I'm not the only one, staring at the sun
 DG
Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside
 C
I'm not just deaf and dumb
 Am
I'm staring at the sun
 DG
I'm not the only one who's happy to go blind
 AmGFEm////AmG
                                                                       There's and insect in your ear,
 FEm
 If you scratch it won't disappear
 AmG
It's gonna itch and burn and sting,
 FEm
You wanna see what the scratching brings
 AmG
 Waves that leave me out of reach
 FEm
 Breaking on your back like the beach
 AmG
 Will we ever live in peace?
 FG
'Cause those that can't do, often have to
 FG
and those that can't do often have to preach
 CAm
to the ones, staring at the sun
 D
afraid of what you'll find
 G
if you took a look inside
 CAm
not just deaf and dumb...staring the sun
 DG
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind

 AmGFEm
 Transigience all around, military still in town
 AmGFEm
 armour plated suited ties, daddy just won't say goodbye
 AmGFEm
 referee won't blow the whistle, God is good but will he listen
 AmG
 I'm nearly great but there's something
 FG
 I left it in the duty free
 FG
though you never really belonged to me
 CAm
I'm not the only one, staring at the sun
 DG
Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside
 C
I'm sucking on my thumb
 Am
I'm staring at the sun
 DG
I'm not the only one who's happy to go blind
