[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

[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
