Boy & Bear - Southern Sun chords
Start Jamming...
[A] And all you've seen
But was it [F] there came down on me that night
[A]
I conjured it
I held on to [F] that moment
And lied just to make it a lie
[G]
[Am] [G]
[F] I sat out there in the covering
In the baskins of a whole night
[G] And I was lucid and [Am] conscious
[G]
Hovering like a [Am] firefly
[F] Mind stretched out on the canopy
It put his arms out slow
[G] And I heard the whispers of silence
floating down from the radio
[C] [F] I got the feeling
[Am] [G]
[C] [F] See I'm not gonna wait till the end
[Am] [F] Cause I got the burning [Dm] fire in [Am] the bed [G] of my soul
[C] Solar [F]
light, a pedal gun
Sixteen days under a southern sun
[G] And there were times when I thought that
I wouldn't mind it if I lost my [Am] mind [F] out there
You wouldn't believe me if I told you so
Things I saw were enough to make the [Am] man in [G] me
The man in me
[Am] Make [G] the man in me
[C] [F] So come on, come on, I'm ready now
Go get your things out, honey, let's get [G] ready to roll
[Am] [G]
[C] Oh, [F] I can feel the way you're coming over me
I've been waiting for this day too long
So let [G] it all go
[C] [G]
[C] [F] As a child I was wondering
I [Am] thought that I might know
[F] A life in the ecstasy of rock [C] and roll
[G] I'm not taking [F] it slow
I'm an arrow in a bow
You'd think [G] that I don't know
What it is that makes it flow
[F] So come on, come on, I'm ready now
I got the feeling, honey, like I'm [G] ready to roll
See [C] [F] I'm not gonna wait till the end of me
I got the burning fire in the [G] bed of my soul
