Every time I Amtry to put this Empuzzle into place C  
There always seems Amto be a piece that's Gmissing C  
And through the eyes of Amsomeone else, I Emlook into my face F  
And can't believe the Amsorrow there I Gsee F  
I can't believe this Amlonely man is DmeG

Dan Fogelberg - Lost in the Sun

CAPO: 2nd Fret

INTRO:

C Am Em C

Every night I ask myself that same old question, "Why?"

Am G C

And every day the answer seems more distant

Am Em F

I always knew the final truths lay just beneath the lies

Am G F

But I never thought they'd be this hard to find

Am D C

I never thought they'd be this hard to find

Am Em C

Every time I try to put this puzzle into place

Am G C

There always seems to be a piece that's missing

Am Em F

And through the eyes of someone else, I look into my face

Am G F

And can't believe the sorrow there I see

Am D G

I can't believe this lonely man is me

CHORUS:

The faster we run

F Eb G

The further away the dreams that we chase become

And lost in the sun

F Eb D

Spinning and turning, blind in the burning light of day

We have to turn away

Lead Break:

C Am Em C

Every night I ask myself that same old question, "Why?"

Am G C

And every day the answer seems more distant

Am Em F

I always knew the final truths lay just beneath the lies

Am G F

But I never thought they'd take this long to find

Am D G

I never thought they'd be this hard to find

CHORUS:

The faster we run

F Eb G

The further away the dreams that we chase become

And lost in the sun

F Eb D

Spinning and turning, blind in the burning light of day

We have to turn away
