[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

Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin'
In the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh, yeah
Hey, hey, hey

My thoughts are with you
Holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay

Found the love that we shared in September
