           G                Bm
Watch the sunset, hold it from afar
        F#m                A
Close as I get, to being where you are
               G                       Bm
While there's light left, I sing this song for you
              F#m                  A
Don't know if you care, but every day I do

         G
Here I stand, staring at the Sun
         Bm
Distant land, staring at the Sun
            F#m                         A
You're not there, but we share the same one
        G
Miles apart, staring at the Sun
         Bm
Distant town, staring at the Sun
             F#m                             A
One thing's true just like you, there's only one

Chorus:
             G D                 A
And I don't care if it burns my eyes
             G D                    A
And I don't care cause my love is blind
                     G      D
From staring at the Sun, oh oh
                     A
From staring at the Sun
       Bm            G      D
From staring at the Sun, oh oh
                     A
From staring at the Sun

Send my love down in those rays of light
Through your window on your tired eyes
Say good morning, say it to the sun
Like you're talking, talking to someone

Here I stand, staring at the sun
Distant land, staring at the sun
You're not there, but we share the same one
Miles apart, staring at the sun
Distant town, staring at the sun
One thing's true just like you
There's only one

Chorus
