(Chorus)
GD#C
Send in that sunshine
GD#C
Make everything right
GD#C
Turn on your love light 'Cause baby I??m coming on by
GD#C
Send in that sunshine
GD#C
Make everything right
GD#C
'Cause there ain??t no suffering in life
GD#C
That don??t ease with the passage of time
(Verse 1)
GD#
If stars died of old age
C
They wouldn??t explode, they??d burn out with a slow fade
GD#C
But stars escape life with a gun shot Which makes me think they stick a pistol in their sun spot
GD#C
Bite the barrel, squeeze the trigger, Might have cared once, but the obstacles seem bigger
GD#
And they??re stuck behind a giant 8 ball
C
The milky way is star brains that are smeared across the space wall
GD#C
You know the red giant in sector two? Yeah, Hector, true, he was a depressing dude
GD#C
I think he thought nobody thought about him, And now that I think about it, I??m liable to guess it??s true
GD#C
Everybody wants the sun to come and cure their rough moods but suns need love too
GD#C
I give out energy and don??t receive. I??m tired now, I??ll go to sleep
N.C.
And when this is the coldest solstice, maybe folks??ll notice me
(Chorus)
GD#C
Send in that sunshine
GD#C
Make everything right
GD#C
Turn on your love light, 'Cause baby I??m coming on by
GD#C
Send in that sunshine
GD#C
Make everything right
GD#C
'Cause there ain??t no suffering in life
GD#C
That don??t ease with the passage of time
(Verse 2)
GD#C
Goodbye Maggie, Goodbye Jules, I wish you??d stuck around, you wise fools
GD#
'Cause friends they tend to come and go,
C
The way the ocean ebbs and flows but there??s reminders in the tide pools
GD#
But when the standing water??s putrid
C
Who am I to say a choice you made was stupid?
GD#
There??s a bunch of us who loved you
C
f**king stuck here pointing fingers at ourselves for something you did
GD#
You you you you you packed your problems in a suitcase
C
You you you went away forever to a new place
GD#C
You left behind a lot of blue faces and bouquets and loose ends like shoelaces, But my friend, it??s too late
GD#C
So all my lightweights and barflies, let??s raise a pint each time a star dies
GD#
And toast the memory of hard lives
C
Filed on the interstellar hard drives and archives
(Outro)
