[Ab] [N]
[Eb]
[Ab]
[Db] I don't expect to see the light of [Gb] day no [Db] more.
[Ab] I don't [Eb] expect to [Ab] sleep through the night.
So people say [Eb] lies, [Ab] lies, lies.
But I say [Db] why?
Why do I be all this time?
Why do I be all this [Ab] time?
[Eb] And I [Ab] remember in a wrong time.
[Eb] I [Ab] remember when I was young.
[Db] And [Ab] they said [Eb] these songs are true.
[Db] These days are ours.
[Eb] These tears [Ab] are for me.
[Db] [Gb] Crosses on the [Db] ballpark.
Crosses on the ballpark.
[Ab] We had a lot of fun.
We had a lot of money.
[Db] [Ab] We had a little song we thought was called Sunny.
[Eb] [Db] [Eb] Sunny gets [Ab] married, moves away.
Sunny [Eb] has a baby, [Ab] and moves away.
[Db] Sunny [Eb] gets sunny, [Ab] and day by day, day by day.
I've been following [Eb] the light [Ab] across my [Eb] room [Db] I watch the night and see it in [Ab] my [Ab] room
So people say the sky is just the sky But [Db] I say, why deny the obvious, child
Why deny the obvious, [Ab] child?
[Db] [Ab]
[Bbm] [Ab] [Db] [Ab]
[Eb] [Db] [Ab]
I've been following [Db] the light [Ab]
across [Eb] my [Db] room I watch [Ab]
the night [Eb] and see [Db] it in my room
[Bb] So people [Bbm] say the sky is just the sky But I say, why deny [Ab] the obvious, [Db]
[Ab] [Eb] [Db] child
[Ab]
[Eb] Sonny wanders [Db] beyond his interior walls, [Ab] runs his hands [Eb] through the spinning [Db] ground.
Well, I'm [Ab] accustomed to a smoother route, [Eb] or maybe my dog has [Ab] lost his bite.
I don't [Db] respect the feeling like a fool no more.
[Ab] I don't respect the sniffing of a fox.
People say a [Eb] lie is [Ab] just a lie, but I [Db] say, cross within the ballpark,
why did I give you [Ab] a chance?
