Things Behind The Sun

	  		

Intro 
  Asus2                          Am             E 
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  | 

 Gadd4/F         E7sus4          E7 
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  | 


verse 1 
  Am 
Please, beware of them that stare, 
         E                               Gadd4/F     E7sus4  E7 
They'll only smile to see you while your time away, |  /  /  /  /  | 
     Am 
And once you've seen what they have been, 
             E                             Gadd4/F 
To win the earth just won't seem worth your night, or your day, 
  E7sus4  E7             Gadd4/F         E7sus4  E7 
|  /  /  /  /  |   Who'll hear ...what I say? 


verse 2 
Am                                      E 
   Look around, you find the ground is not so far from where you are, 
Gadd4/F                  E7sus4  E7  Am 
        But don't be too wise,          for down below they never grow, 
          E 
They're always tired, and charms are hired, 
Gadd4/F                    E7sus4        E7 
         From out of their      ...eyes, 
Gadd4/F              E7sus4      E7 
         Never sur - prise!   |  /  /  /  /  | 


verse 3 
A                         A4 
    Take your time, and you'll be fine, 
     A                D/A         C/G                D7/F#  D6/F# D7/F# 
And say a prayer for people there,   who live on the floor, 
      A                 A4                 A               D/A 
And, if you see what's meant to be, don't name the day, or try to say, 
C/G                   D7/F#    D6/F# D7/F# 
     It happened be - fore! 

 Gadd4/F         E7sus4          E7 
|  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  | 


verse 4 
Am 
    Don't be shy, you'll learn to fly, 
     E                            Gadd4/F 
And see the sun when day is done,          if only you see, 
 E7sus4  E7            Am 
|  /  /  /  /  | (A)- Just what you are, beneath the star, 
       E 
That came to stay one rainy day, 
Gadd4/F                        E7sus4  E7 
         In autumn for free, |  /  /   /  /  | 
    Gadd4/F          E7sus4         E7 
Yes, be what you'll       ...be!  |  /  /  /  /  |

And once you've seen what they have been, 
             E                              Gadd4/F

Verse 7 
A                 A4              A              D/A 
    Open up the broken cup, let goodly sin and sunshine in, 
C/G                      D7/F#    D6/F#  D7/F# 
     Yes, that's today, 
      A             A4                  A                D/A 
And open wide the hymns you hide, you find renown while people frown... 
C/G                             D7/F#    D6/F#  D7/F# 
    ...At things that you say, 
C/G                      D7/F#           D6/F#  D7/F# 
      But say what you'll----  ...say... 


Verse 8 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4     E7 
       ...About the farmers and the fun, 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4     E7 
          And the things behind the sun, 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4     E7 
              And the people around your head, 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4     E7 
         Who say,'Everything's been    ...said!', 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4     E7 
           And the movement in your brain, 
Gadd4/F                             E7sus4          E7 
             Sends you out into the rain!
