[Verse 1]
The [C]sun was [Bm]in my ey[B5]e s[B]

Give [G]in to

[Verse 5]
[F]all [Em]the temptation
Give [G]up on [F]all your beliefs
[Em]Forget the feeling of the

would get [C]old
Would you miss looking forward to when
it starts to get cold

And starred in[D]to the [C]light

[Verse 9]
[C]
The sun was [Bm]in m[B5]y eye[C]s

green and blue
