Beautiful!
[D] However, this is thirsty [F#] work, so forgive me.
[E]
[G]
[G#] Is it really a bad song when people start [G] jeering it for ten minutes?
I don't know.
Anyway, let me loosen this side.
[E] Because [D] for this next song I definitely [A] have to make myself comfortable.
[Am] Because [E] it's about a lady who lives back in Dublin City, Ireland, okay?
And, uh, Los [F#] Angeles, [D] last July, just last couple of months ago, she turned [D#] 88 years of [G] age, okay?
[E] I am of course talking about my [E] sweet mother, Miss Ellen King, alright?
[C]
[G] [C]
[G] [D#] Which doesn't mean to say [D] she kicked the fucking nurses out of [G] you, okay?
I [Em]
[G] have bruises everywhere to prove it.
[F#] And yeah, this is a [D] song we'd like to take you back to Drunken Lullaby's album.
[G]
[N] And this is a little thing we call The Sun Never Shines, and Close Those.

[C]
[G]
[D]
[G]
You saw her [C] there fade from [G]
afar
Her hair grey [C] charcoal [G] takes a drag from [D] her tar
[Em] I kissed [D] her smile, [G] but her blood red [C] shot I
Said the [E] sun never [D] shines [G] on closed doors
It's been [C] eight long years [G] since I saw
The woman [C] who's labored [G] since the day [D] I was born
[A]
These wrinkles [D] now face [G] through that cold [C] dark damn place
Where the sun [D] never shines [G] on closed doors
She says [C] the sun never shines on [G] closed doors
I [C]
open to find only [D] hurricanes blow up
[C] To take me [D]
away back [G] to the green fields [C] of May
Because the sun never [D]
shines [G] on closed doors
Death [C] comes like a thief [G] in the night
Still [C] while you sleep, [G] the soul's [D] flickering light
[C] Well maybe [D] it's death, she [G] says I'll see you [C] again
Because the sun [D] never shines on [G] closed doors
She [C] says the sun never [Bm] shines on [G] closed doors
[C] I open to find [G] only hurricanes [D] blow up
[C] To take me [D]
away back to [G] the green fields [C] of May
Because the sun [D] never shines on [C] closed doors
[G]
