Let Our Sun Shine

Joshua Radin - Let Our Sun Shine (2014)
Chords 11/1-2015 by Jon Malmin ([email protected])
Tuning: Standard E (capo 2nd fret!)

The D/F#'s are optional and can be skipped if you find them difficult! They're only important
during the bridge (but you can still just play a regular D if you want).

[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G
Lately I've been thinking
                D/F#  Em         C         G
Without you I'm just a dreamer out at sea
G
So close to sinking
                D/F#   Em               C          G
Miles from shore, they sure have made a mess of me

[Pre-chorus]
Em                   C              D          G  D/F#
...Well I'll be your sea, if you'll be my land
Em              C       D             G  D/F#
...I'll crash my waves upon your sand
Em                     C        D      G  D/F#
...Can't tell where you end and I begin
Em       C          D
...As I open up my eyes

[Chorus]
           G    C
And I say hey,
D          C               G    C
...Let our sun shine down
D             C         G    C
...Now we're wide awake
D          C          G     C
...Let our sun shine down
D    C           G    C    D    C
......La la la la la

[Verse 2]
G
Baby if you told me
           D/F#  Em        C          G
I'd be wandering down this road again
G
I'd say you're crazy
                      D/F#  Em         C              G  D/F#
'Cause for so long we only called each other friends

[Pre-chorus]
Em                  C              D          G  D/F#
...But I'll be your sea, if you'll be my land
Em               C      D             G  D/F#
...I'll crash my waves upon your sand
Em                     C        D      G  D/F#
...Can't tell where you end and I begin
Em        C          D
...As I open up my eyes

[Chorus]
           G    C
And I say hey,
D           C          G    C
...Let your sun shine down
D             C         G    C
...Now we're wide awake
D             C          G     C
...So let our sun shine down
D           C                  G    C
...Take our foot of the brakes
D              C          G    C
...And let our sun shine down
D    C           G    C    D    C
......La la la la la

[Bridge]
Am           C               D
...It's been five long years
Am           C             G          D/F#
...Since I awoke from that long dream
Am              C           D
...But now with you my dear
Am          C              G            D/F#  C/E  D
...I know exactly where I'm supposed to be

[Chorus]
          G    C
So I say hey,
D          C          G    C
...Let our sun shine down
D             C         G    C
...Now we're wide awake
D          C          G     C
...Let our sun shine down
D           C              G    C
...Take our foot of the brakes
D              C          G     C
...And let our sun shine down
D             C     G   C
...La la la la la
D             C
...La la la la la
