Acoustic version of Stare in the Sun
(off the "All That's Left" single)
Tuned down a full step.
[Intro]
Am C G F
[Verse 1]
I Amsit here clutching useless lists
and Ckeys for doors that don't exist
I Gcrack my teeth on pearlFs
I Amtear into the history
just Cshow me what it means to me in this Gworld
yeah, in thiFs world
[Chorus]
'cause I am Amdue for a Cmiracle
I'm Gwaiting for a siFgn
I'll Amstare straight inCto the sun
and GI won't close my eFyes
'til FI understand or go blind
[Instrumental]
Am C G F
[Verse 2]
I Amsee the parts but not the whole
I Cstudy saints and scholars both
no Gperfect plan unfurFls
do I Amtrust my heart or just my mind
Cwhy is truth so hard to find in tGhis world
yeah, in this Fworld
[Chorus]
'cause I am Amdue for a Cmiracle
I'm Gwaiting for a siFgn
I'll Amstare straight inCto the sun
and GI won't close my eFyes
'til FI understand or go blind
[Bridge]
( Dm   F   C  Am)
( Dm   F   C  Em)
I Dmknow that there's a point I've missed
a Fshrine or stone I haven't kissed
a Cscar that never graced my wrist
a Ammirror that hasn't met my Dmfist
but I can't Fhelp feeling that I'm
[Chorus]
Amdue for a Cmiracle
I'm Gwaiting for a siFgn
I'll Amstare straight inCto the sun
and GI won't close my eFyes
'til FI understand or go blind
