Sara Bareilles - Chasing the Sun Lyrics (HD) chords
Start Jamming...
[C#] It's a really old [F#] city, split between the dead and the living
[C#] So I thought to myself, sitting on a graveyard [A#m] shelf
As the echo of [F#] heartbeats from the ground below my [C#] feet
Filled a cemetery in the center of Queens
I started running a maze [F#] of the names and the dates
[G#] Some older than others, skyscrapers, [A] little tombstone [A#m] brothers
[C#] With Manhattan behind [F#] her, three million stunning [G#] reminders
Filled a [C#m] cemetery in the center of Queens
[C#] You said, remember [Fm] that life is not meant to [F#] be wasted
We [C#] can always be chasing the sun
So fill up your [Fm] lungs and just run
[F#] [C#] Always be chasing [G#] the sun
[C#] So how do you do it?
With just words and just [G#] music
Capture the feeling that [C#] my earth is somebody's [A#m] ceiling
Am I delivering [F#] sound?
[C#] The weight of the [G#] ground
Of a cemetery
[C#] In the center of Queens
There's a history through [F#] her
Sent to us as a gift from the [G#] future
To show us the proof
More than that, it's to dare us to [A#m] move
And to open our [F#] eyes
And to learn from the [G#] sky
From a cemetery
In the center of [C#] Queens
You said, remember [Fm] that life is not meant to [F#] be wasted
We [C#] can always be chasing the sun
So fill up your [Fm] lungs and just [F#] run
[C#] Always be [G#] chasing the [C#] sun
All we can [F#] do is [G#] try
[A#m] And live like we're [F#] still
[G#] alive
[C#] It's a really old [F#] city
Slip between the dead and the living
[G#] So I thought to myself
Sitting on a graveyard [A#m] shelf
And the gift of my [F#] heartbeat
Sounds like a symphony
[G#] Played by a cemetery
In the center of Queens
[C#] You said, remember [Fm] that life is not meant to [F#] be wasted
We [C#] can always be chasing the sun
So fill up your [Fm] lungs and just [F#] run
[C#] Always be chasing the sun
All we can [F#] do is [G#]
try
[A#m] And live like we're [F#] still alive
[G#]
[C#] All we can [F#] do is [G#] try
And [A#m] [C#] live like we're [F#] still [G#] alive
