[Verse 1]
C Am Em
I watch the sun sitting quiet in the backseat
C Am G
she's like the sun always coming and then leaving
C Am Em
I feel like the moon sitting quiet in the darkness
C Am G
"she'll be here soon" said nobody being honest
[Interlude]
C Am Em Em
C Am Em
[Verse 2]
C Am Em
I watch the sun even though I'll never have her
C Am G
I let her run even knowing what could happen
C Am Em
'cause I am the moon and people at night need to see things too
C Am G
but I'm far removed wondering if the sun needs the moon too
[Interlude]
C Am Em Em
C Am G
[Verse 3]
C Am Em
I want the sun even though I'll never have her
C Am G
the only one that I'll ever be after
C Am Em
I watch the sun I wanna show her what she's missing
C Am G
but all the stars shine much brighter when she's dimming
[Bridge 1]
C Am
"but don't cry moon, you'll get to catch a glimpse of her soon"
Em C Am
a glimpse? that's it? that's not enough to satisfy this
C Am Em
I watch the sun I try to reach and grab her
C Am G
she's on the run and nobody can have her
[Verse 4]
C Am Em
"so" said the moon "if anybody knows what I've been through,
Am Em
lift your head and cry with me too"
Am G
and every dog howled at the moon
[Bridge 2]
G Em Am C
'cause all they wanted was to give love
G Em Am C
but what they got was never enough
G Em Am C
'cause all they wanted was to give love
G Em Am C
but what they got was never enough
G Em Am C
and all I wanted was to give love
G Em Am C
but what I got was never enough
G Em Am C
and all I wanted was to give love
G Em Am C
but what I got was never enough
G Em Am C
and all I wanted was to give love
G Em Am C
but what I got was never enough
[Verse 5]
C Am Em
I watch the sun even though she'll never notice
C Am G
she's on the run I need to keep my focus
C Am Em
I've got a light on, it's not as bright but
C Am G
I'll try to shine on, I'll try to shine on
