[Verse 1]                                       
[G] I can't light [C/G]  [G] no more of your [F] darkness [C]  
[F/C]  [C]  [C/E]                                            
[F] All my pictures  [Bb/F] [F] seem to fade to black and [G] white   
[C/G]   [G]   [C/G]    [G]                                      
[G] I'm growing tired [C/G] [G] and time stands still [F] before [C] me  
[F/C]  [C]  [C/E]                                 
[F] Frozen here [Bb/F] [F] on the ladder of my [G] life 
[C/G]   [G]   [C/G]    [G]  
                                 
[G] Too late [C/G] [G] to save myself from  [F] falli [C] ng  
[F/C] [C] [C/E]    
[F] I took a chance [Bb/F] [F] and changed your way of  [G] life  
[C/G]   [G]   [C/G]    [G]                             
[G] But you misread [C/G] [G] my meaning when I  [F] met y [C] ou  
[F/C]  [C]  [C/E]                                   
[F] Closed the door [Bb/F] [F] and left me  [C/G] blinded by the  [G] light

[Chorus]              
[C] Don't let the sun go  [C/Bb-6x555x] down on me
[F/A] Although I search myself, it's always [D7/F#] someone else I see
[C/G] I'd just allow a fragment of your  [F/G] life [G]  
to wander [C] free [C/Bb]                                         
But  [F/A] losing everything is like the  [Dm] sun (fast chords)
[C/E] go--- [F] ing   [C/G] down  [G] on  [C] me

[Intro Riff]
[C]        [C/Bb]      ([F/A]    [C/G])     [F]                                              

[Verse 2]                                                
[G] I can't find [C/G] , [G7] oh the right rom 
[F] antic li [C] ne 
[F/C] [C] [C/E]    
[F] But see me once [Bb/F] [F] and see the way 
I  [G] feel  [G7]   
[G] Don't discard me [C/G] [G] just because you  
[F] think I mean you [C] harm
[F/C] [C] [C/E]    
[F] But these cuts I have [Bb/F] 
[F] they need love [C/G] to help them heal [G]

[Chorus]                                                 
[C] Don't let the sun go  [C/Bb-6x555x] down on me
[F/A] Although I search myself, it's always [D7/F#] someone else I see
[C/G] I'd just allow a fragment of your  [F/G] life [G]  
to wander [C] free [C/Bb]                                         
But  [F/A] losing everything is like the  [Dm] sun (fast chords)
[C/E] go--- [F] ing   [C/G] down  [G] on  [C] me
|C        |C/Bb      |F/A          |Ab6    Bb      |                                                    

[C] Don't let the sun go  [C/Bb-6x555x] down on me
[F/A] Although I search myself, it's always s [D7/F#] omeone else I see
[C/G] I'd just allow a fragment of your  [F/G] life  [G]    to wander  [C] free     
[C/Bb]                                              
But  [F/A] losing everything is like the  [Dm] sun (fast chords)
[C/E] go--- [F] ing   [C/G] down  [G] on  [C] me
|C        |C/Bb      |F/A          |Ab6    Bb      |C        

[Notes]
Don't go for harmonies in the chorus too much                              
Opening figure - use thumb and first finger to play B - 1 3 E - 1 0 B - 1 3
Whilst still holding the C chord as much as possible so it sustains        
Chord for C/Bb - 6x555                                                                                  
Run down - D 0 - A- 3 2 0 then play G - don't pull off play first 
with first finger then rest with thumb                       
Piano intro C - notes - dont try to hold C maj chord - use second 
finger for the 1 so in good position to finger the next chord
B 1 3 E 1 0 B 3 1 (hammer on and pull off) - 11xx1x 01xx1x x10x1x                                                              
Use side of thumb and muting with left hand to 1 &3&4 - staccato on 4                                                          
Losing everything - have snare hit with no chord OR just play bass drum with chords
