        A sh[E]adow on the run (on the run)
        [Gm]Don't be too upset because it's j[D]ust a paper sun

A pa... per sun
[repeat intro] 
Verse 2:
In the room where you've been sleeping
All your clothes are thrown about
Cigarettes burn window sills
Your meter's all run out
But then again its nothing
You just split when day is done
        Pitching lips [?] to nowhere, hung up on the paper sun
[repeat cborus] 
[repeat intro] 
Bridge:
        D5 [w/sitar as per intro]
Standing in the cool of my room
Fresh cut flowers give me sweet perfume
Too much sun will burn
                          (T[D]oo much s[F]un w[G]ill b[D]urn)
Too much sun will burn
                          (T[D]oo much s[F]un w[G]ill b[D]urn)
Verse 3:
When you're feeling tired and lonely
You see people going home
You can't make the train fare
Or the sixpence for the phone
And icicles you're crying
From your cheek have just begun
Don't be sad, good times are had
Beneath the paper sun
[repeat cborus] 
Coda [separated from "Paper Sun", titled "We're A Fade, You Missed This",
and moved to last track of US LP]
        [Asus4]                   [A]                                              [Asus4]Daylight breaks while you sleep on the s[A]and
        A[Asus4] seagull is stealing the ring from your h[A]and
        That[Asus4] boy who had given you so much f[A]un
        Has [Asus4]left you so cold in the p[A]aper sun
(continue and fade)
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
